Synopsis

'One of the most imaginative minds at work in South African literature today.'-Andre Brink

Originally part of a collaborative project with photographer David Goldblatt, 'Double Negative' is a subtle triptych that captures the ordinary life of Neville Lister during South Africa's extraordinary revolution. Ivan Vladislavic lays moments side by side like photographs on a table. He lucidly portrays a city and its many lives through reflections on memory, art, and what we should really be seeking. Ivan Vladislavic is the author of a number of prize-winning fiction and nonfiction books. He currently lives in Johannesburg, South Africa.
