- Summary:
- An unsentimental, sometimes painful and sometimes humorous portrait of Colonel Hilary Hook, an old British soldier and former professional hunter, forced to retire from his country home in the Kenyan hills to live in a small semi- detached cottage in an English village. Colonel Hook's dilemma suggests something of the legacy of colonialism, in which the 'civilisers' have become anachronisms.
