By Damon Galgut

Damon Galgut is a playwright and novelist living in Cape Town. This is an edited extract from his forthcoming novel The Impostor, published by Atlantic this June

  • Impostor

    When Adam's life fell apart, he turned to his brother for help. But charity can be hard to swallow

  • The conversation

    A child soldier leads Father Angelo to speak with the devil in the African bush

  • An African sermon

    "There was a history. There had been trouble before, Hutu and Tutsi trouble. There had been big killing in Burundi. That is part of the story, but in a way it is also another story. When trouble comes, it happens to you alone."
