Rush drops an unnamed female anthropologist into the Kalahari and lets her construct the most intellectually seductive love story in contemporary fiction. The narrative voice carries five hundred pages of desert wisdom and romantic philosophy without breaking stride. Nelson Denoon becomes less a character than a hypothesis about whether brilliant men can love as equals. For readers who believe the most important relationships are also experiments in human possibility, who understand that love and anthropology share similar methodologies.
