Description
In this daring 1967 novel, Wilson Harris turns away from the surface facts of everyday relationships to probe the spiritual and psychic forces that shape human lives. Set within the charged stillness of a “waiting room,” characters confront what lies between moments—half-remembered histories, shifting perceptions, and the unsettling sense that meaning is always arriving late. As conversations unfold, the book builds a bold, experimental narrative that treats time, consciousness, and belief as living currents rather than fixed realities. Blending lyrical intensity with philosophical inquiry, it explores themes of fate and delay, inner transformation, and the hidden dimensions of connection—an unmistakable expression of Harris’s visionary style.
