From the bestselling, awardwinning author of Bad Land comes a quirky and insightful novel of what can happen when one can and does go home again.'Raban's achievements in this novel are nothing short of awesome.' The Washington PostFor the past thirty years, George Grey has been a ship bunker in the fictional west African nation of Montedor, but now he's returning home to Englandto a daughter who's a famous author he barely knows, to a peculiar new friend who back in the sixties was one of England's more famous singers, and to the long and empty days of retirement during which he's easy prey to the melancholy of memories, all the more acute since the woman he loves is still back in Africa. Witty, charming and masterly crafted, Foreign Land is an exquisitely moving tale of awkward relationships and quiet redemption.
