Ian Holding

Original title: Of beasts and beings

earliest edition we have, 2010 Simon & Schuster, Limited, 2010

In this searing and timely novel, the devastating effects of a country's economic and moral collapse provide the backdrop for a story about individual fortitude and conscience. This powerful story alternates with the tale of a white schoolteacher who, embittered by the horrific state of his country, is preparing to leave. Before he can do so he must confront his own demons and personal failings.
