Reactive

Ten years ago, I helped a handful of men take my little brother's life... Lindanathi and his friends-Cecelia and Ruan-make their living working low-paying jobs and selling anti-retroviral drugs. In between, they huff glue, drift in and out of parties, and traverse the streets of Cape Town, where they observe the grave material disparities of their country. One day, a mysterious masked man appears seeking to buy their surplus of anti-retroviral drugs, an offer that would present the three with the opportunity to escape their environment, while at the same time forcing Lindanathi to confront his path, and finally, his past. "One of the most exciting debut novels I've read in years. Ntshanga is a wildly talented writer. Get in on his brilliance now so you can claim you always knew he'd be great."
