Decades after liberation in eThekwini-Durban, South Africa, the young woman Lindeka reads the book Malfeasance. Lindeka is fascinated, but finds Serres’ narrative increasingly disturbing for what it omits: Where is eThekwini-Durban, or even Africa in this universalising history of our planet? Striking up a conversation with Michel, Lindeka decides to make her own study of historical difference and global connection.
The Lindeka: When a City Ate a Book (2023) is currently not available on any services.
