Editorial Reviews:
Review:

"Ellellou himself is an extraordinary tour-de-force of a character....What a rich, surprising, and often funny novel THE COUP is."

Robert Towers, New York Times Book Review, 12/10/1978

Review:

"The fact is that Updike's sentences can be read with the pleasure that poetry can, and the fingers are more than enough to count the novelists of whom such a thing can be said."

Alastair Reid, New Yorker, 12/25/1978

Book Description: RANDOM HOUSE, 1980. Paperback. Book Condition: New. Reissue. 174 x 107 mm. Brand New Book with Free Worldwide Delivery. "The Coup" describes violent events in the imaginary African nation of Kush, a large, landlocked, drought-ridden, sub-Saharan country led by Colonel Hakim Felix Ellellou. ("A leader," writes Colonel Ellellou, "is one who, out of madness or goodness, takes upon himself the woe of a people. There are few men so foolish.") Colonel Ellellou has four wives, a silver Mercedes, and a fanatic aversion--cultural, ideological, and personal--to the United States. But the U.S. keeps creeping into Kush, and the repercussions of this incursion constitute the events of the novel. Colonel Ellellou tells his own story--always elegantly, and often in the third person--from an undisclosed location in the South of France. "From the Trade Paperback edition.".
