Galahad is getting on well in London. In fact he sometimes feels like a king as he strolls through the park, three or four pounds in his pocket, sharp clothes on, off to meet a new girl under the clock in Piccadilly tube station. But there's a darker side to the city, and a hungrier one, that prompts Galahad into a high-risk exploit. Sam Selvon's rich and touching 1956 novel about the lives of a group of Caribbean immigrants in London. Abridged by Lauris Morgan-Griffiths. Read by Don Warrington. Producer: Sara Davies First broadcast on Â鶹Éç Radio 4 in January 2014.
