A review by ecs_etera
Nineveh by Henrietta Rose-Innes

3.0

At least the first half of this book was excellent, but then it got lost in the swamp. It is an ambitious work, but falls a little short of the bar it set for itself. Often poetic, but more often close to poetic. It is by a South African author, so maybe the ideal consumer of this book is someone more familiar with or immersed in that culture than I am.
