...And the Rain My Drink

Han Suyin

Prvi put objavljen 1956., veličanstveni roman Han Suyina o razdoblju izvanredne situacije u Malaji i Singapuru.

Ovaj roman evocira sve boje i sukobe zemlje u kojoj se kasnih 1940-ih i ranih 50-ih vodio žestoki gerilski rat između komunističkih terorista koji su vrebali u malajskim džunglama i britanskih, australskih i novozelandskih oružanih snaga. S beskrajnom oštrinom i osjećajem ona piše o isprepletenosti života mnogih ljudi uhvaćenih u sraz moćnih sila. Uporni, potlačeni kineski gumenjaci, lijepa djevojka zvana Mali Oblak za koju je izdaja postala način života, te ukočeni, povučeni svijet britanskih administratora i njihovih 'mema'.
