Matthew Kneale's «English Passengers» tells the story of an 1857 expedition to Tasmania, in search of the Garden of Eden, whose members — including a vicar and a sinister racial theorist — don't realise they are actually aboard a manx smuggling ship. Told by a score of different characters and packed with drama, comedy and punch, «English Passengers» is a major work of the imagination.
