Title: Oriental Parade
Author: FOUNTAIN DAVID
Roger and Bethany Blake inherit a fortune from a distant aunt and set about restoring a harbourside house into a fashionable boutique hotel. Their guests from all walks of life bring their relationships and particular livelihoods into our focus as events unfold in the storytelling. The stories relate to each other by place, by characters and by events over time. Most stories have a cross-cultural slant exploring relationships of language, humour, understanding, and custom to story progress and outcomes. The theme of orient versus occident is a recurring one for the characters in the 16 stories and a photographic frontispiece of each story assists understanding of events and place for each.
