Title: The traders
Description: THE TRADERS takes place in 1974 in the fictitious Southeast Asian nation of Tandomon, where an aging used bookseller pretends to have been the close friend of a famous writer currently the subject of a posthumous literary study. The deceit, undertaken via correspondence, becomes harder to sustain when the pompous American professor writing the study arrives in Tandomon to meet his "valuable contributor." And matters get further complicated when the bookseller in the course of his own research discovers some disturbing facts about his "former friend" and "notable writer."--From Amazon.
