Archaeology of Holes
About this book
Set is contemporary South Africa, An Archaeology of Holes oscillates between the fantastic and raw realism. A narrator with a piercing and mesmerized eye examines the holes, which are everywhere: in bodies, in desires, in the ravaged land, erased lives and memories, forgotten loves and massacres. In this hallucinatory journey, one can equally well autopsy your own corpse, live inside a cow, foment a revolt of migrant workers, discover a fallen empire at the bottom of a vacant lot, engage in lice trafficking, explore a black hole by digging in your garden, or be present on the day when all the whites finally walk out into the sea.
