Peter Carey, Garcia Marquez, Solzhenitsyn: Andre Brink must be
considered with that class of writer
*Guardian*
An astonishing performance... His most profound and most beautiful
novel-It could well be Brink's most artistically complex and
complete achievement
*Irish Times*
Harsh, visionary and unsettling
*Time Out*
Compelling to read and hauntingly vivid... Suffering, humiliation,
love, revenge companionship: to each Brink gives a multi-faceted,
diamantine brilliance... Cries out to be read

Brink is one of the crucial writers of our time... A truly
horrifying tale, but compassionately and compellingly told
