Warning: This story is narrated by a gorilla. He is plucked from
the jungle. He learns to chat and passes the ultimate test: a
cocktail party. Eventually he is moved to an amusement park, where
he acts in a play about the history of civilisation. But as the
gorilla becomes increasingly aware of human frailties, he must
choose between his instincts and his training, between principles
and self-preservation. ----- Why Peirene chose to publish this
book: 'This is Peirene's first book narrated by an ape. Animal
fables are usually not my thing. It needed Belgian deadpan humour
to convince me otherwise. Mixing Huxley's Brave New World with
Orwell's Animal Farm, the fast-paced plot leaves behind images that
play in your mind long after you have closed the book.' Meike
