Notes
Description
"South is a haunting and hallucinatory reimagination of life in a world under totalitarianism, and an individual's unsuccessful quest for truth, agency, and understanding. B, a journalist, travels to the South of an unnamed desert country for a mysterious mission to write a report about the recent strikes in an offshore oil rig. From the beginning of his trip, he is faced with a cruel and broken landscape of drought and decay, superstitious believers of evil winds and spirits, and corrupt entities focused on manipulation and censorship. As he tries to defend himself against his unknown enemies, we learn about his father's disappearance, his fading love with his wife, and his encounter with an unknown woman. A puzzle-like novel about totalitarianism, surveillance, alienation, and guilt that questions the forces that control us."--,Provided by publisher.
