Description
A powerful novel of terror and remorse, Too Late The Phalarope is written in exquisitely balanced prose. Set against the backdrop of South Africa's rigid social hierarchy, the story follows a young white police lieutenant as he struggles to come to terms with his actions. After violating the law governing relationships between the races, the lieutenant must face the censure of an inflexible society and his own family. This is a gripping tale of remorse and the consequences of one man's choices. With its nuanced exploration of racial tensions and personal guilt, Too Late The Phalarope is a thought-provoking read for those interested in literary fiction.
