      The Pursuit Of Love: Why Are We Still So Obsessed With The Mitford Sisters?

      May 11, 2021

      Is there any greater example of the Problematic Fave than the Mitford sisters? They were posh, gossipy, fabulous, stylish and politically extreme. Were a couple of them – let’s just say it – outrageously right-wing? Yes. But are we still – myself inc

      Set in Spanish Guiana 'MAMista' is about a group of Marxist revolutionaries who have grand dreams of overthrowing the capitalist government. The story centres around Ralph Lucas who is sent to Guiana from his foundation in Australia to determine what type of medical aid to provide to the marxist guerrillas fighting the government. Amongst this there is Angel Paz the American academic marxist and a CIA operative undercover in an oil company who is kidnapped by the MAMistas and the need to collect a ransom culminating in a march through the jungle.Not in the same league as XPD but still a decent book.
    • 4/5
      unlikely plot but interesting characters and one wants to read on - a gentle pace, not so compelling as his earlier work
