Книга: Tom Sharpe «Riotous Assembly»
Производитель: "Arrow Books" When Miss Hazelstone of Jacaranda Park kills her Zulu cook in a sensational crime passionel, the gallant members of the South African police force are soon upon the scene: Kommandant van Heerden, whose secret longing for the heart of an English gentleman leads to the most memorbale transplant operation yet recorded; Luitenant Vekramp of the Security Branch, ever active in the pursuit of Communist cells; Konstable Els, with his propensity for shooting first and not thinking later and also for forcing himself upon African women in a manner legally reserved for male members of their race. In the course of the strange events which follow, we encounter some very esoteric perversions when the Kommandant is held captive in Miss Hazelstone`s remarkable rubber room; and some even more amazing perversions of justice when Miss Hazelstone`s brother, the Bishop of Barotseland, is sentenced to be hanged on the ancient gallows in the local prison.
