"With the scaffolding of a courtroom drama and the moral
underpinnings of the state's responsibility, the novel infuses an
isolated crime of passion with the atmospheric pressure of a
country reeling from its own past." --"The Boston Sunday Globe"A
house gun, like a house cat: a fact of ordinary daily life. How
else can you defend yourself against intruders and thieves in
post-apartheid South Africa? The respected executive director of an
insurance company, Harald, and his doctor wife, Claudia, are faced
with "something that could never happen to them" Their son, Duncan,
has murdered a man. In this powerful and disturbing anatomy of a
murder, Nadine Gordimer examines the effect of violence on the
complicated web of love that holds together parents and children,
friends and lovers.
