Description
Black Sunlight by Dambudzo Marechera is a dark and deeply radical novel that offers a visceral account of a photojournalist's entanglement with a terrorist organisation in an unnamed totalitarian state. The members of Black Sunlight, a group of violent anarchists, are the only ones fighting for change and justice, as their actions push the country further towards chaos. The journalist records it all through the lens of his camera, determined to remain a bystander and nothing more; to capture their actions without praise or condemnation. In evocative flashes of sex, violence, war, and myth, Christian's story explodes in a labyrinthine plot, told through a chaotic stream-of-consciousness that mirrors the nation's crumbling climate. This is a piercing insight into the darkness of the human psyche and a raw examination of a nation in battle against itself - where everything political turns deeply personal.
