The setting of the novel is Sarawak.

But ambushing enemy patrols and sinking boats on the winding rivers of Kalimantan were by no means the whole story; for the nature of SAS work in Borneo was a combination of apparent opposites. At least half the time was spent on hearts and minds--making friends with the jungle tribes, becoming personally involved, with genuine humanity and skill. "; 9839629859.

The author sets out to show that the slow pace of economic development in Brooke Sarawak was due not only to the non-developmental, conservative, and paternalistic policies of the Brookes but also to the natural and physical conditions of Sarawak itself which compared unfavourably with those in British Malaya and Java.

	HICKLING, HUGH Festival of Hungry Ghosts : A Novel Petaling Jaya (Malaysia): Pelanduk Publications, 1997. Paperback. 14 x 22 cm.; pg. 278; Preface. "FESTIVAL OF HUNGRY GHOSTS is concerned with the lives of those engaged in administering a small British Colony in the Far East. The Governor and his Councillors are brilliantly depicted as men committed to maintaining a status quo, yet inwardly aware that the phase of history they represent is fast drawing to a close. The setting of the novel is Sarawak. The author conveys the atmosphere of this distant country with authenticity, and his picture of colonial society in the 1950s fascinatingly reflects both the personal and professional problems of a closely-knit community, a society now so remote as to appear a dream, rather than reality.
