330 .. $a "A study of an enigmatic travel writer and his work in colonial Asia during the fin
de siècle. In 1898, a man calling himself Alfred Raquez appeared in Indochina claiming
to be a writer travelling the world to escape unfathomable sorrows back home in France.
He published thousands of pages of highly detailed travel accounts that open a unique
window onto the European presence in the Far East. He travelled far into the Zomia
of upland Southeast Asia, a peripheral zone populated by people who lived beyond official
state power. Raquez explored the nightlife of Shanghai and operated a popular cabaret
in Hanoi. An amateur anthropologist, he helped mount expositions of colonial material
in Hanoi and Marseille. Raquez met people in the highest circles of Belle Époque
Indochina, as well as the kings of Annam, Cambodia, Laos and Siam. And yet, despite
the charm and the ebullience and the erudition, through all his travels and rising
fame, the man kept a secret that was so mortifying that even his closest companions
would not learn of it until after his death in 1907. In truth, Alfred Raquez did not
exist. A fascinating read for students and scholars of colonial Southeast Asia, and
European colonialism more broadly"
