Description: |
For fans of J.M. Coetzee, Anita Shreve and THE OTHER HAND, a devastatingly powerful novel from ORANGE PRIZE-longlisted Melanie Finn. Unabridged edition. |
Synopsis: |
Most of us have a plan. Somewhere to go if something awful happens. Pilgrim Jones doesn't. She looks up at a departures board and takes the first flight. She alights on the edge of Africa. Over confessions and strong gin, she's lured into a world of mercenaries and philanthropists, delusional heroes and witchdoctors in polyester suits. But what about the beating absence, the thing she's done? SHAME is a novel about a world out of time, about magic and chance, Europe and Africa, learning to live and living to learn. It will transport you from diplomatic dinners to a land where fireflies light the sky, and a desolate, magical coastline where anything - anything - might happen. SHAME will change you.
