"I am sitting on the twenty-fourth storey of a hotel in Singapore. I am having a very serious nervous breakdown." If you want to know why the hero of A.P. Wo…lf's riotous novel is going quietly insane in a concrete tower block, you'll have to read Vagabond. It?s a story of twenty-four hour piss-ups, cock fights, mah-jong, and unsafe sex in the kampongs and back-alleys of old Singapore. It features a pair of dogs called Rape and Pillage, a cat called Shitbag, a very large and very dangerous monkey, a crazed older brother called Dave, a posse of under-age and over-curious daughters of local army officers, various murderous Marines, and Richard Chan, the most awe-inspiring man in all Singapore. And one hell of a lot of Tiger beer. And it all ends. well, badly. Condition: The book is in good condition, with some light wear to the edges, the heaviest being a small crease to the bottom edge of the front cover. Light creasing to the spine. The slipcase has some edgewear but is otherwise good. Signed by Author(s).
