Hardback. Condition: Good. A boy full of questions sets out to find some answers in this silly, sublimely imaginative picture book. On the day he was born, before he could crawl, the boy who knew nothing knew nothing at all. On the faraway island of Solo Capoo lives a boy who knows nothing. Not his As and Bs, not his twos and threes, and certainly not the name of the strange pink creature he finds one day in the dress-up box. His father says it's a sleepy giraffe, which seems wrong, so the boy sets out to discover the answer. But if all the wisest people in the land can't tell what the creature is, how is a boy who knows nothing supposed to find out. MacKinnon, Angus (illustrator).…

Trade Paperback. Condition: Fine. First UK Edition. 253 Pages. In 1965, a soldier walked in from the outskirts of a town and reported that he had just shot and killed two policemen and a Canadian Catholic priest. It was the opening scene in a mystery that, forty years later, compels JB MacKinnon, a nephew of the murdered missionary, to investigate what many believe was a carefully plotted assassination. A superb work of reportage, which blends documentary sources with imaginative conjecture to create a memorably good thriller. Dominican Republic, June 1965, and the bodies of two policemen are found near the body of a Catholic missionary priest, who they have apparently murdered. Not long before this the US had invaded the Dominican Republic in order to prevent a reformist government from coming to power; and a few years before that, the long, bizarre reign of the dictator Rafael Trujillo had come to an end in a bloody tangle of violence. The mystery of the priest's death was never solved. Forty years later, the priest's nephew returned to the island. His courageous research has allowed him to write a masterly combination of real-life thriller, travelogue and memoir. Evoking the fevered atmosphere of a beautiful country that does not encourage too much examination of its past, MacKinnon meet the people who remember all too well what it was like live mortal fear if they dared to challenge the landowners and the police. Brilliantly pieced together and threaded in with an account of the country's history and beautifully observed travelogue.…
