About the book
Gen Doy investigates the hitherto neglected meanings of drapery and the draped body in visual culture around the world. She looks at areas such as the changes in drapery's connotations from purity to barbarity in holy war torn countries.
First sentence: At the close of his latest case, Nestor Burma, socialist, anti-Stalinist and private detective, decides to give his fee to the two victims of crime who are still alive at the end of the novel - the girlfriend of a dead blackmailer and the orphan child of a prostitute.
