Set during the Indian Rebellion of 1857, the novel follows the British garrison of a fictional town under siege by rebel forces for months, as the colonial social order they cling to collapses along with their supplies, reduced to eating their own horses and dogs while disease spreads through the compound. Farrell's darkly comic account of empire under pressure won the Booker Prize in 1973, forming the second volume of his "Empire Trilogy" alongside Troubles and The Singapore Grip.
