At the centre of this poignant novel is Simon, a successful Johannesburg businessman, whose carefully constructed life is rapidly falling apart. Trying to make sense of it all, he returns to his childhood home in beautiful but uncosmopolitan Zululand. It is here that the reminders of his own boyhood lead him on a journey of rediscovery of both the ordinary and the extraordinary. His best friend Jonathan, blind and enigmatic, is trying to deal with the crushing weight of history and responsibility. Jonathan's twin sister Sarah, scarred by that same history, is tormented by demons both visible and invisible. These three remarkable characters try, in their own ways, to make sense of the world and their relationship to each other. Inextricably linked by fate, birth and the difficult but enriching bonds of love, this dramatic masterpiece weaves together different lives with lyrical simplicity.
