Game Control by Shriver, Lionel
ISBN: 9780007578016 PUBLISHER: The Borough Press FORMAT: Paperback PAGES: 416 PUBLICATION DATE: 12.02.2015 DIMENSIONS: 19.8 x 12.9 x 2.4 centimetres
DESCRIPTION: From the Orange Prizewinning author of WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT KEVIN comes a grimly comic tale of bad ideas and good intentions. With a deft, droll touch, Shriver highlights the hypocrisy of lofty intellectuals who would "save" humanity but who don't like people.Eleanor Merritt, a dogooding American familyplanning worker, was drawn to Kenya to improve the lot of the poor. Unnervingly, she finds herself falling in love with the beguiling Calvin Piper despite, or perhaps because of, his misanthropic theories about population control and the future of the human race. Surely, Calvin whispers seductively in Eleanor's ear, if the poor are a responsibility they are also an imposition.Set against the vivid backdrop of modernday Africa, Game Control is a wry, sardonic conspiracy story about bad ideas and good intentions.
