Produktbeschreibung
A primatologist flees her broken marriage for a job in war-torn Africa in the renowned author's "brilliant... stunningly magical" novel ( Washington Post Book World). William Boyd's classic Brazzaville Beachhas been called a "bold seamless blend of philosophy and suspense... [that] nevertheless remains accessible to general readers on a level of pure entertainment." ( Boston Globe). When her marriage to a brilliant but unstable mathematician finally shatters, Hope Clearwater leaves England to join a team of primate researchers in a remote African country. Though she is there to study chimps, the greater challenge is her attempt to grapple with her own recent past-as well as her fellow scientists. And when she discovers evidence of supposedly peaceful chimps engaging in extreme violence, Hope finds herself drawn into a war of desperate egos and ruthless ambitions.
