Figures in a Landscape was Barry England's first novel. Published by Jonathan Cape in the summer of 1968, it was hailed by critics as an exemplary addition to the literature of escape. Two professional soldiers, Ansell and MacConnachie, have escaped from a column of POWs in an unnamed country in the tropics.
FIGURES IN A LANDSCAPE is a novel of pursuit, finding MacConnachie and Ansell chased by a nameless army just called 'Goons' after making a break for it. Just out of captivity, on a spur of the moment, they're racing through the terrain with their hands tied behind their backs.
