Description
'Beautifully weird, eerie, unexpected - a story for our times' Kevin Barry 'A work of genius. Eradication is a beautiful and devastating novel' Luke Kennard 'A deft, unsettling exploration of what it means to play God' Maria Reva A moving fable in which a grieving man, confronts a broken world on an island overpopulated by goats. Reeling from tragedy, a former jazz musician-turned-schoolteacher named Adi answers a job listing advertising a chance to save the world. The assignment: to spend five weeks alone on the tiny, isolated Pacific Island of Santa Flora and reckon with its invasive population of goats that's sent the ecological balance severely out of whack.. What follows, however, is anything but balanced. The threats to the once-Edenic island, Adi soon learns, aren't exactly what his employers said they were - and, complicating things further, he discovers he's not alone on the island. Fearful for his own life, and for the fate of the island, Adi spends his sun-drenched days rooting out the true threat to Santa Flora, and, by extension, to the world it occupies - and the desperate steps he must take to eradicate it. Eradication is an utterly unforgettable reading experience and the work of a truly singular imagination.
