James Clavell King Rat Vintage Classic Action-Adventure Dell PB 55th print 1990s. James Clavell, King Rat, Vintage-classic-Action-Adventure, Dell Paperback 55th print circa 1990s, general wear, very good condition. King Rat is a 1962 historical fiction novel by James Clavell, based on his own experiences as a POW in a Japanese prison camp in Singapore during WWII, focusing on the struggle for survival, power, and the clash between the American corporal "King" and the British class system. The story follows the pragmatic, resourceful King as he uses trading and manipulation to thrive in the brutal environment, contrasting with the rigid, honor-bound British officers who struggle to adapt, all while navigating the camp's black market and power dynamics. It's the first book in Clavell's "Asian Saga" and explores themes of survival, human weakness, and the breakdown of social order.
