Description
Jack Flowers, saint or sinner, found a new lease of life when he jumped off the Allegro in the Straits of Malacca, caught a passing bumboat to Singapore and got a job as a water-clerk to a Chinese ship-chandler. Soon he executed a brilliant idea, which resulted in his fame throughout the Far East - in a storm he sailed a boatload of bar-girls out to a freighter, where they spent the day with the lonely sailors. But Jack's story is much more than a detailed record of pimping in the tropics. His fifty-three years weigh heavily on him, and he dreams extravagantly of success.
