Summary:  "In this highly anticipated new novel, Irishman Jack McNulty is a "temporary gentleman"--an Irishman whose commission in the British army in World War II was never permanent. Sitting in his lodgings in Accra, Ghana, in 1957, he's writing the story of his life with desperate urgency.

A lifetime of war and world travel--as a soldier in World War II, an engineer, a UN observer--has brought him to this point.
