Try To Keep Up

Breytenbach has created web of narratives and characters that intersect, disappear or lurk behind changing names. Reading this was more like navigating a web of wordplay than following a plotline. The beauty is that the wordplay will be witty before it waltzes into poetry and dives into delicious descriptions - but then you may find the words lead you too far from the place you started in and you now need to reread three paragraphs to catch up. Understanding some of the content also requires reading on Breytenbach's life story.
