ASYLUM

205pp., paperback, Johannesburg, 2017

"A searing vision of an all-too-possible world, where moments of human  grace and dreaming gleam all the brighter in confinement. With this richly imagined parable, Low emerges as a profound and wholly original voice." Henrietta Rose-Innes, author of Green Lion and Nineveh

"Asylum is a forceful and engaging tale that brilliantly blends the real and imagined world and is full of sparkling inventions. This page-turner is bound to be the talk of book circles." Niq Mhlongo, author of After Tears and Way Back Home

Marcus Low is editor of the health magazine Spotlight. He lives in Cape Town. Asylum is his debut novel.
