'Horseman' ist eine apokalyptische Fabel von der Eroberung und Besiedelung Südafrikas, von einem der ungewöhnlichsten Autoren des Kontinents, ein farbenprächtiges, poetisches Panorama, angesiedelt zwischen Mythos, Magie und historischer Realität.
"A dark and terrifying novel presenting a mythical account of the development of evil through the history of Southern Africa."--Seattle Times. This ferocious new novel by one of South Africa's visionary writers is a post-colonial reimagining of the Book of Revelation--an unholy epic that reenvisions the catastrophic violence of European "civilization" as a hooded rider who spreads slaughter across the African continent--a work that is as unnerving as it is intellectually provocative.
