Triangulum
by Masande Ntshanga

Triangulum is starting from the collapse of the apartheid homeland system in the early 1990s, to the economic corrosion of the 2010s, and on to the looming, large-scale ecological disasters of the 2040s.

48. Triangulum by Masande Ntshanga

This book is a mindfuck, in the best ways, interweaving time and (unreliable?) narrations and possibilities in an oh so slow and careful layering. What if the aliens are coming to warn us, but when it comes down to it, we need to fix ourselves?
