Resurrection in Guatemala

Sometimes autobiographical, but most times not, RESURRECTION IN GUATEMALA is a second collection of never-before-published short stories, verses and essays, by international bestselling novelist Anthony Grey gathered together from over four decades of his writing. High drama and low comedy unfold equally in the shadow of Central America's smoking volcanoes, on the streets of Berlin and London and above the coasts of the Isle of Man. Some of the stories were among those he scribbled secretly and hid from his guards while held hostage for two years in solitary confinement in China and not published until now. The stories feature actors, strippers, tycoons, journalists, rich men, poor men, beggarmen, thieves. These fleeting fictional tales, verses and prose musings might at first sight seem ephemeral beside the author's enduring internationally acclaimed historical fiction - but might some of them be destined to linger just as long in readers' memories? Other international bestsellers by the same author now republished simultaneously in special anniversary editions on 5 July 2013 include SAIGON and PEKING, and the author's very first novel THE JERSEY STRATAGEM.
