A Country Without Rain

on BBC Radio 4 FM

by WILLIAM HANLEY a bar-keeper
As in his play Slow Dance on the Killing Ground the Irish-American author probes man's conflicting loyalties, his fidelity to creeds and people, in love and in revolutionary politics, subjected to the pressures of race and repressive violence in a Caribbean island. Or as one of the characters formulates it in a toast: ' To " Honour." And to all those who fail to survive their enthusiasm for it.'
Adapted for radio by GUY VAESEN Produced by H. B. FORTUIN
