This fictional account of an anthropologist in Botswana in the early 80s is a masterpiece of literature - I’ve never read any other novels by the author but one gets the sense that anything he writes would be worth reading, although it is worth mentioning that this is a very demanding, difficult read, spanning many languages and allusions.
Loved it as a kid, thought it was dumb in my 20s, now I’ve come back around on this classic sci-fi emo thriller, not only did it inspire a whole raft of culture in its wake, it’s honestly pretty inspiring and touching.
