Guardian Bookshop Notes:
Stunning literary novel which was shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize 2003 in trade paperback, and has sold over 50,000 copies to date. Captivating story of South Africa's transition, full of powerful emotions and a truly gripping plot. Will appeal to fans of J.M. Coetzee and Kazuo Ishiguro. "His sentences have such hypnotic power that once started, this novel is very hard to put down" Russell Celyn Jones, "The Times"
