Book excerpt: An American smuggler in Egypt finds himself at the mercy of killers, femme fatales, and an escalating revolution—a lost pulp crime novel from one of the legends of the genre Lost for more than 60 years and overflowing with political and sexual intrigue, Thieves Fall Out provides a delicious glimpse into the mind of legendary writer Gore Vidal in his formative years. By turns mischievous and deadly serious, Vidal tells the story of a man caught up in events bigger than he is, a down-on-his-luck American hired to smuggle an ancient relic out of Cairo at a time when revolution is brewing and heads are about to roll. One part Casablanca and one part torn-from-the-headlines tabloid reportage, this novel also offers a startling glimpse of Egypt in turmoil—written over half a century ago, but as current as the news streaming from the streets of Cairo today. Gore Vidal was one of America’s greatest and most controversial writers. The author of twenty-three novels, five plays, three memoirs, numerous screenplays and short stories, and well over two hundred essays, he received the National Book Award in 1993. In 1953, Vidal had already begun writing the works that would launch him to the top ranks of American authors and intellectuals. But in the wake of criticism for the scandalous content of his third novel, The City and the Pillar, Vidal turned to writing crime fiction under pseudonyms: three books as “Edgar Box” and one as “Cameron Kay.” The Edgar Box novels were subsequently republished under his real name. The Cameron Kay never was.

Download or read book Of Vagabonds, Missionaries and Thieves written by Douglas Hawkins and published by Europa Edizioni. This book was released on 2021-05-31 with total page 469 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Set in the 19th-century Boer Republic of Transvaal, Southern Africa, the Boer Dirk van Zyl leads his band of vagabonds in raids on African villages, capturing children to be traded for cattle and sold into labour on the Boer farms. A missionary, Albert Nachtigal, strives to save his mission station from losing Christian converts to a successful African preacher. A notorious thief, Msuthu, acting undercover as bodyguard to an African king, is the secret middleman in trading children between the vagabonds and corrupt officials of the Boer republican government. Albert Nachtigal abhors the trade but, in his efforts to thwart the success of the African preacher, the politically naïve missionary falls under the spell of power-hungry Boer politicians seeking to expand the trade, inadvertently leading the republic into war. Of Vagabonds, Missionaries and Thieves is a startling novel about two African kingdoms, a fledgling Boer republic and a war that brings about the beginning of the end of the shocking child trade in Southern Africa during the 19th century. Set against the background of the rolling savannah and grasslands of the African Highveld, the author lucidly captures the characters as they fall foul of each other in this tale of greed, corruption and hunger for power. Douglas Hawkins was born in Germiston, South Africa, where he lives today. Shortly after he was born, the family moved to the Kingdom of Swaziland (today Eswatini) where he spent his formative childhood years before returning to South Africa. Following his retirement from the corporate world, he has pursued his passion for the multifaceted histories and cultures of the people of South Africa, and the wide diversity of the country’s fauna and flora, geology and geography. He is a qualified Field Guide and a South African National Guide in history and culture. He has travelled extensively around South Africa, western Zimbabwe, southern Zambia and northern Botswana. His writings have focused especially on the 19th century Anglo-Zulu and Boer-Pedi battlefields, narrated from the viewpoint of the Zulu and Pedi nations. Of Vagabonds Missionaries and Thieves is the author’s second novel. His first book, My Brother’s Keeper (second edition published in 2014) is a factually and culturally accurate portrayal of the first month of the Anglo-Zulu war of 1879, written solely from the Zulu standpoint.
