Présentation de l'éditeur :
A wonderful book will make you laugh and cry out load. Once you've read it you'll recommend it to everyone and won't to able to forget the marvellous twin-throne loos and the inimatable partnership of Management and Ownership (aka Mrs Bhoolabhoy). Tusker and Lucy Smalley stayed on in India. Given the chance to return 'home' when Tusker, once a Colonel in the British Army, retired, they chose instead to remain in the small town of Pangot, with its eccentric inhabitants and archaic rituals left over from the days of the Empire. Only the tyranny of their landlady, the imposing Mrs Bhoolabhoy, threatens to upset the quiet rhythm of their days. Both funny and deeply moving, Staying On is a unique, engrossing portrait of the end of a empire and of a forty-year love affair.
Revue de presse :

"Certainly his funniest and, I think, his best. it is a first-class book and deserves to be remembered for a long time" (Evening Standard)
"One of the most cherished books of the last quarter-century. It is good to re-read it for its humour and pathos as well as its wonderful description of the legacy of the Raj" (Sunday Telegraph)
