My Name Is Nathan Lucius

Nathan Lucius, 31, is an ad salesman at a Cape Town newspaper. Disaffected, hard-drinking and plagued by blackouts, Nathan lives alone and has only one true friend, a woman named Madge. But Madge is dying slowly of cancer, and when she asks Nathan to end her pain, she sets off a shocking string of events. My Name is Nathan Lucius is a taut and unforgiving exploration of the intersection of violence, trauma, social responsibility, and memory.
