Brooke J., The Orchid Trilogy — 1982 (King Penguin)
Аннотация: Partly through recollection, partly by fictional narrative, Jocelyn Brooke explores, in this autobiographical work, his two worlds-the one bound by his own experience and the other a magical and, as yet, unknown landscape which lies beyond the 'frontier'. A sensitive and intelligent child, Brooke perceived himself as an outcast from society, but introspection proved fruitful and enabled him to recreate this lyrical and witty portrait og his own past and also evoke that tradition of Englishness which is now lost for ever.
