The Black Album by Hanif Kureishi P/B 2003

The Black Album by Hanif Kureishi. Paperback edition published by Faber in 2003 (reprint). \n\nShahid is a clean-cut student, trying to make an impression on his college lecturer, Deedee Osgood, who gives his spirits a lift when she takes him to a naked rave party. Shahid's academic prospects are threatened by the intervention of his gangster brother Chili, who, with his Armani suits and Gucci loafers, moves into Shahid's bedsit as a hideout, bringing unnecessary danger and excitement with him. Set in London in 1989, the year of the fall of the Berlin wall and the fatwah, The Black Album is a thriller with a characteristically lively background: raves, ecstasy, religious ferment and sexual passion in a dangerous time.\nVery good general condition. Pages a little yellowed but clean \nand tightly bound. Very little creasing or wear to the covers or spine. \n\nThanks for looking.
