'Old Filth' is Sir Edward Feathers nickname taken from the term 'failed in London, gone to Hong Kong,' a term used in the British Empire for those who never quite adapted to life back Home. He's a Raj orphan. This first book in the trilogy chronicles his life, which parallels much of the 20th century's major events. It's very funny and will have you wanting to read all three of Gardam's interconnected stories! Amazing.
