Gifford, Barry:

Port Tropique.

Kirkegaards Antikvariat
kir56550
Paladin Paperback, 1992. 141 pp. Remainder mark to bottom edge else clean and very good.

Revolution is simmering in the heat of battered Central American town Port Tropique, where protagonist Franz Hall is an "intellectual Meursault in a paranoid Hemingway landscape, a self-conscious Conradian adventurer, a Lord Jim in the earliest stages of selfwilled failure" (New York Times). The ineffectual hero spends his days drinking and observing people in the z calo, and occasional nights involved in an ivory-smuggling operation threatened by impending government siege. Always persistent are memories of Marie and what was lost. In this sinuous narrative of dislocation and remorse, Barry Gifford details Franz's mundanity and the bizarre cast of characters swirling around him.

Sage Publications Pvt. Ltd, 1995. Hardcover w jacket. 348 pp. "This book is concerned with community participation in the slums of Bombay and examines slum-dwellers' needs for housing and basic services. Vandana Desai focuses on two issues: What impact does community mobilization have on the process of slum upgrading? What is the extent of participation and how does it affect the services provided? The author seeks to understand how the housing and basic service needs of the urban poor are articulated and fulfilled, their involvement in community organizations and the role that the community and its leaders play in influencing state action".
