Forlagsbeskrivelse af Whirlwind af James Clavell
James Clavell's classic portrayal of the Iranian revolution at its height in fresh new packaging to appeal to a new generation. ''James Clavell does more than entertain. He transports us into worlds we''ve not known, stimulating, educating, questioning . . . a wonder of detail'' Washington Post''The author handles the plot with all the confident authority of a ring-master, keeping a half-dozen themes and a formidable cast of characters moving along at a cracking pace. By the end I was breathless and lost in admiration at the sheer professionalism of it all'' Sunday TelegraphWhirlwind is the story of three weeks in Tehran in February 1979: three weeks of fanaticism, passion, self-sacrifice and heartbreak. Caught between the revolutionaries and the forces of international intrigue is a team of professional pilots. They are ordered to flee to safety with their helicopters. Two of them, both Europeans, have Iranian wives whom they love beyond safety and politics.''so abundant in sub-plots, characters, intrigue and atmosphere that its 1,000-plus pages seem barely adequate. Some of the most enjoyable reading around'' Daily Mail
