Jaffy Dark brown is working along a avenue in London's East End when he comes in person with an escaped circus pet animal. Rescued by Mr Jamrach - explorer, businessperson and collector of the world's strangest animals - the two strike up a companionship. Before he is aware of it, Jaffy locates himself on board a ship destined for the Dutch East Indies. His journey will push trust, love and companionship to their extreme limitations. Carol Birch's epic book brings alive the smells, sights and flavours of the nineteenth hundred years, from the docks of London to the storms of the Indian Ocean: a gripping exploration of our marriage to the natural world and the wildness it includes.
