Now, only the oldest QCs and Silks can remember that his nickname stood for Failed In London Try Hong Kong. Please read it'Daily Mail FILTH, in his heyday, was an international lawyer with a practice in the Far East.
Jane Gardam's novel tells his story, from his birth in what was then Malaya to the extremities of his old age. Long ago, Old Filth was a Raj orphan - one of the many young children sent 'Home' from the East to be fostered and educated in England. In doing so, she not only encapsulates a whole period from the glory days of the British Empire, through the Second World war, to the present and beyond, but also illuminates the complexities of the character known variously as Eddie, the Judge, Fevvers, Filth, Master of the Inner Temple, Teddy and Sir Edward Feathers.
