Freed's Crowning Achievement to Date

Though Freed is a five-star novelist through and through, this novel is by far my favorite. It has the lean necessity of cruelty and violent thoughts and angry passion that has shaped the best of Nadine Gordimer's work set in South Africa. Though it might help to have read Freed's previous novel "Home Ground" (equally brilliant, if a little lighter and funnier), one can read this as is and be spellbound. (As for the cover . . . search for the original hardback.)
