'Witty, poetic, clairvoyant' John Updike The Reverend Timothy
Fortune, ex-clerk of the Hornsey branch of Lloyds Bank, has found
his vocation: to convert the inhabitants of the remote tropical
island of Fanua to Christianity. Even when everyone except for a
young boy called Lueli remains indifferent to his preaching, Mr
Fortune's good spirits cannot be dampened - until one day his faith
is put to a terrible test. 'This quizzical tale is so intensely
moving' Gillian Beer, New Statesman 'Original, elegant and
hypnotically strange' Miranda Seymour, The New York Times 'Sylvia
Townsend Warner pursues the psychology of the story with beautiful
accuracy' John Carey
