A fascinating sequel to Papillon. Still driven by his burning sense
of injustice at wrongful imprisonment, he indulges in shady and
outright criminal activities to raise funds for his return to
Paris. Venezuelan life and South American stories are wonderfully
described as he moves towards reconciliation with starting anew.
(Kirkus UK)
The sensational sequel to 'Papillon'. 'Banco' continues the
adventures of Henri Charriere - nicknamed Papillon - in Venezuela,
where he has finally won his freedom after thirteen years of escape
and imprisonment. Despite his resolve to become an honest man,
Charriere is soon involved in hair-raiding exploits with
goldminers, gamblers, bank-robbers and revolutionaries - robbing
and being robbed, his lust for life as strong as ever. He also runs
night clubs in Caracas until an earthquake ruins him in 1967 - when
he decides to write the book that brings his international fame.
