Farrell’s novel is an anti-empire satire, defenders of the series have pointed out; the wealthy white families at its centre are clearly awful, and they are far from being sympathetic characters. There is some of that left over here. Joan and Walter marvel patronisingly at Vera’s good English, which is as present-day as it is early 1940s. Sylvia has some decent lines: “He’s not dead, is he? And the weather! What else could go wrong?” And I did enjoy Joan’s willingness to go as far as her father deems necessary, without much in the way of a prompt. “What does it matter what he’s like? Of course I’ll marry him,” she purrs. Singapore's residents are given a stark awakening to the realities of war when tragedy strikes the city.
