The renowned novelist Fielding Gray is commissioned by the BBC in 1962 to present an unbiased account of Cyprus's independence in the series "History of Today." Once stationed there as a professional soldier, Gray bears the scars of a bomb attack that abruptly ended his military career. Barely has he begun his research when mysterious accidents occur, seemingly intended to disrupt his mission. And just before he can interview a legendary guerrilla leader in Athens, an encounter with a young man derails him in a way that transports him back to a guilt-ridden love affair from his youth.
Scarred by life, Gray immerses himself in the ruins of antiquity, where he unexpectedly finds a fleeting happiness in which the past gives way to a hopeful present, and the roles of victim and perpetrator remain unclear. In the sixth installment of his "Alms for Oblivion" series, Simon Raven (1927–2001) follows the story of a man seeking solace amid concealed crimes, unscrupulous agents, and cultural-political power struggles, once again demonstrating that the laughter of the Furies is not limited to the ancient world.
