Though it does not shy from the political issues of colonialism and race that are implied in its setting, Typhus is both a turbulent love story in the best traditions of Western popular cinema and an existentialist tale of moral redemption. --Publisher's description. 650 0 $a Physicians $z Malaysia $v Drama. 650 0 $a Singers $z Malaysia $v Drama. 650 0 $a Imperialism $v Drama. 651 0 $a Malaya $x History $y British rule, 1867-1942 $v Drama. 655 4 $a Motion picture plays, French. 700 1 $a Turner, Chris. 700 1 $a ElkaiÌm-Sartre, Arlette. 830 0 $a French list. 941 $a 2 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160825060525.0 952 $l OIAX792 $d 20101130010445.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=B02D153AFC4F11DF927F57F86AFF544EInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
