Description

A Man Who Is Not A Man recounts the personal trauma of a young Xhosa initiate after a riteofpassage circumcision goes wrong. With frankness and courage, this powerful novel details the pain and lifelong shame this protagonist experiences as a result not only of the physical trauma, but the social ostracism from being labeled a failed man. He decodes the mysteries of this longstanding cultural tradition and calls to account the elders for the disintegrating support systems that allow such tragic outcomes. But it is also through this lifechanging experience that the protagonist is forced to find his strength and humanity, and reassess what it really means to be a man.
