First in the Old Filth trilogy. A New York Times Notable Book.
20Old Filth belongs in the Dickensian pantheon of memorable
characters21 (The New York Times Book Review).Sir Edward
Feathers has had a brilliant career, from his early days as a
lawyer in Southeast Asia, where he earned the nickname Old
Filth (FILTH being an acronym for Failed In London Try Hong
Kong) to his final working days as a respected judge at the
English bar. Yet through it all he has carried with him the
wounds of a difficult and emotionally hollow childhood. Now an
eighty-year-old widower living in comfortable seclusion in
Dorset, Feathers is finally free from the regimen of work and
the sentimental scaffolding that has sustained him throughout
his life. He slips back into the past with ever mounting
frequency and intensity, and on the tide of these vivid, lyrical
musings, Feathers approaches a reckoning with his own
history. Not all the old filth, it seems, can be cleaned
away.Borrowing from biography and history, Jane Gardam has
written a literary masterpiece reminiscent of Rudyard
Kipling17s 20Baa Baa, Black Sheep21 that retraces much of
the twentieth century17s torrid and momentous history.
