Nalda Said
Stewart David
Andrew described this as a good first novel. The book is narrated in the first person by a character whose name we never get to know (the author plays with this to tease the reader). The main character is an uneducated, though not unintelligent, young man who has been brought up by his Aunt Nalda - who has lived a bohemian life. He is making his way around the world, and while doing so he is keeping a strange secret. The book deals with him keeping his secret while making friends. Generally a good read.
