When I tell you that the first part of this book is unrelenting, haunting and utterly disturbing I mean it, I'm used to gore and violence as an habitual reader of horror and all manners of awful things, here it's rendered in a most effective way so that the horror lingers at the back of your mind.
The second part isn't quite as powerful but it's a great example of what it's like to live under apartheid and how a small thing can alter the entire course of one's life. It doesn't culminate to its ending so much as meets it violently but not entirely unexpectedly.
It feels almost wrong to even rate this book.
Indeed, a minor detail can bring the dead back to life. But until the lives of those who rekindle the memories of the dead continue to be threatened, repressed and subjugated – it can only be a brief return.
