The Promise
by Damon Galgut
Beautifully written, flawed characters that felt very real.
"She lies down and closes her eyes and tries to find a place inside herself where a cold wind isn't blowing."
"Bodies cast carelessly aside, like crumpled wrappers with no practical use. Each one a life, or rather used to be, and from each one, concentric rings of pain ripple out in all directions, perhaps for ever."
"Not himself, no, not at all. But who is he then, if not himself?"
