Tuck's Reviews > Absolution

really dense and rather slow pace, but also incredibly in-depth look at "finding the truth". for a first novel it is just wow. plot is a writer interviews a writer about her book(s) while also writing his own book, and all are simultaneously exposing and hiding "the truth". course in south africa, those truths take on a horrific, almost science fiction ghoulishness. super accomplished first novel, but took forever to get through.
