In the early Sixties, Victor ‘Lucky’ Johnson arrives in London from St Kitts, with dreams of becoming a journalist. Lucky soon finds work, first at an Irish pub in Notting Hill – then as a rent collector for unscrupulous slum landlord Peter Feldman.
Shadowing Victor in London from his early struggles to the present day, Caryl Phillips paints a striking portrait of a flawed but vividly alive man grappling with the lifelong disillusionments of exile – and the uniquely complicated identity of the Windrush generation.
