Barry Jackson: The Boy in the Green Dress, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Jack Curtis is one of life's natural survivors PART 1Arriving at his new boarding school, in rural East Anglia, in 1963, Jack's expecting all the pampering of his colonial childhood in Africa and Asia to continue. But he's in for a big surprise. 360 boys all looking for trouble - and the new boys are the targets. But Jack quickly realises protection is the key to survival, so he immediately devises ways to keep himself on top, and his life certainly does pick-up. PART 2All grown-up, and now calling himself JJ, he returns to Hong Kong - and the lifestyle he so enjoys. It's 1975 and he's found a real job - one with unbelievable perks, including lots of travel. When he bumps into his old school pal, George, who needs Jack's help to get back on track - and that's not easy. PART 3It's 1987 and Jack is now living in Sydney. But today is not going well. So, he sneaks off early - and gets stuck in a sauna with two people who hate him. They sit there, naked and ignoring each other until a power outage traps them. And in the process of finding an escape, they discover that they are actually all far more similar than they first believed. The two books that continue to follow Jack Curtis' romp through life in "The Green Dress Trilogy", are: "Two Guys with Pink Leotards" And**"My Three Favourites"** For further updates, email the author ongreendresstrilogy@gmail. com
