''For me life hasn''t got dreams, success and all that damn nonsense. Life is full of shadows: some of them soft and others conceal a hammer.''
Galton Flood is a lonely man, restless and ill at ease with his family. He leaves his home in Guyana''s capital, Georgetown, for a remote township, and the first of a string of precarious jobs. Meeting Gemma, his landlord''s daughter, appears to offer a first chance of meaningful connection - maybe even happiness. But there is a darkness inside Galton, and soon jealousy and paranoia lead him to fatally, violently unravel.
With this haunting portrait of a mind undone, celebrated Guyanese writer Roy Heath evocatively recreates the country of his youth: its rivers, townships and tenement yards, and the tensions shimmering below the surface of a community.
