Description

It is 1993, and Aubrey Tearle's world is shutting down.

He has recently retired from a lifetime of proofreading telephone directories.

His favorite neighborhood haunt in Johannesburg, the Cafe Europa, is about to close its doors; the familiar old South Africa is already gone.

Standards, he grumbles, are in decline, so bad-tempered, conservative Tearle embarks on a grandiose plan to enlighten his fellow citizens.

The results are disastrous, hilarious, and poignant.Ivan Vladislavic is the author of a number of prize-winning fiction and nonfiction books.

He lives in Johannesburg, South Africa.
