Perfect Roger: Worlds Apart, Destinies Unknown...

People and things. There is always a reason behind why us human-beings do what we do, and why objects and artefacts are like they are.Perfect Roger is the story behind two boys growing into men, into their own families and their own businesses. One born into a 1970's English home-counties affluence thanks to his father's successful City of London firm, the other growing up amidst the horrors of the Khmer Rouge regime in deepest Cambodia.While Han Sen struggles to live up to the teachings of the Buddha, he becomes deeply embroiled in an emotionally super-charged love triangle with two fellow survivors of the genocide and embarks with a steely resolve on making the perfect range of rotary salad tossers, and some perhaps even less flamboyant household products. Roger Collins spurns education, abjectly craves his father's wealth and eventually finds a type of fulfilment at the local sailing centre. Despite a spell in a Mafia infested prison sharing a cell with a convicted murderer, he somehow finds his match in an unconventional love. Uncle Vern, the retired general and expat, is the catalyst behind the development of Han Sen's sexual-aid range, the untapped strength of the MassageOmatic, with its roots in the distant past of the Killing Fields, opens up uncharted possibilities for the more imaginative of Vern's S&M and military customers. Megalomaniac ambition and some would say, misguided ambivalence culminate in a corporate collapse on a colossal scale, and pitches Roger and Han Sen on to an unwittingly calamitous collision course. Are there survivors? Is there a winner? Which one would care the least? Could they have learnt from one another? Find out in this definitive tale of diverse parallel lives.
