Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A dazzling comic masterpiece that reminds us why Peter Carey is Australia's most internationally acclaimed novelist.Olivier is a French aristocrat, the child of survivors of the revolution. Parrot, the son of an English printer, is a restless servant. When Olivier sets sail for the New World - ostensibly to study its prisons, but in reality to avoid another revolution - Parrot is sent with him, as spy, protector, foe and foil. They are an unlikely pair, but where better for unlikely things to flourish than in the glorious, brand-new democratic experiment, America? And who better than Carey to show what Americans do not always wish to see- that their earliest observers included some who foresaw disastrous consequences for that experiment, well before they became headlines around the world. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Seller Inventory # 9781760896485
