Whites
#1524 of 8,085 books · #761 in Fiction
Shortlisted for the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction (1987) and the National Book Award for Fiction (1986).
Whether they are American, British or a stubborn and suicidally moral Dutchman, Norman Rush's whites are not sure why they are in Botswana, and this uncertainty makes them do very strange things.
