Moses Ascending

Moses thinks he's got it made. Originally a poor Caribbean immigrant, he is now the proud landlord of a ramshackle house in Shepherd's Bush, London. He has visions of being master of his own domain, writing memoirs while his trusty sidekick and handyman, Bob, does all the work.

But Moses's problems are far from over.... Soon a Black Power group take over the basement, headed by inodmitable - but very sexy - Brenda and an illegal people-smuggling ring is discovered upstairs. Not to mention harrassment by racist police, sheep slaughtering in the back yard and a Black Panther (human kind) on the loose.

Will Moses' elaborately constructed castle in the air be demolished by these unruly forces?

Following the fortunes of the characters from Selvon's The Lonely Londoners, Moses Ascending is a hilarious and telling depiction of 1970s Britain.

Moise crede ca a facut-o. Initial, un sarac imigrant din Caraibe, el este acum mandru proprietar al unei case daramate din Shepherd's Bush, Londra.
