He is a reader, a listener, anda traveller drawn to many different kinds of stories: from history and theepic; of friends, family, and strangers; those found in books and films. Oneman's personal lens refracts entire worlds, and back again.Aweekend spent shopping for antiques is shadowed by the colonial atrocitiesthat occurred on that land.
A walk at dusk is interrupted by casual racism. Aloving marriage is riven by mysterious tensions. And a remarkable cascade ofvoices speak out from a pulsing metropolis.Tremoris a startling work of realism and invention that examines the passage of timeand how we mark it.
It is a reckoning with human survival amidst "history'sown brutality, which refuses symmetries and seldom consoles" - but it is alsoa testament to the possibility of joy. This is narration with all its sensesalert, a surprising and deeply essential work from a beacon of contemporaryliterature.
