Description

King Rat (Hard Cover) by James Clavell. 'Book Club Edition' 'A tense, thrilling saga of human passion and survival, King Rat was James Clavell's first best seller. It established him as "a spellbinding storyteller, a brilliant observer, a man who understands much and forgives much.". During World War II, deep in occupied Japanese territory, ten thousand men are living, and dying, together. All are criminals, incarcerated and paying for a single, terrible crime: they have lost a war... yet they have nonetheless lived. Changi prison camp, set on the eastern tip of Singapore Island, is Hell. It is filled mainly with English and Australian soldiers, and a scattering of New Zealanders, Canadians and Americans - the remnants of the armed forces of the Far East campaign.' The dust jacket has light to medium general wear but the book remains tight and bright.
