About this book
In a sudden fit of rage, a London shipping clerk named Jim Colet strikes down his employer and, believing he has killed the man, walks away from his ordered life and takes ship for the East. What begins as flight slowly becomes an awakening. Colet drifts through Malaya and the islands, meeting hard men and unfamiliar coasts, and finds out who he is once the office and the crowded city fall away behind him. Tomlinson, a seasoned traveler and lifelong lover of ships, writes the sea and the tropics with rare feeling, and the novel won him wide acclaim and a major prize when it appeared.
