Description

The first novel in a new Cold War fantasy series, where the Berlin Wall is made entirely of magic. When a breach unexpectedly appears in the wall, spies from both sides swarm to the city as World War III threatens to spark. AFTER THE WAR, THE WALL BROUGHT AN UNEASY PEACE. When Soviet magicians conjured an arcane wall to blockade occupied Berlin, the world was outraged but let it stand for the sake of peace. Now, after ten years of fighting with spies instead of spells, the CIA has discovered the unthinkable… THE WALL IS FAILING. While refugees and soldiers mass along the border, operatives from East and West converge on the most dangerous city in the world to either stop the crisis, or take advantage of it. Karen, a young magician with the American Office of Magical Research and Deployment, is sent to investigate the breach in the Wall and determine if it can be fixed. Instead, she discovers that the truth is elusive in this divided city–and that even magic itself has its own agenda. THE TRUTH OF THE WALL IS ABOUT TO BE REVEALED.

Description

Breach draws from the wisdom of Africa and the African human experience to urge reconsideration of conventional notions of a home as sheltered assurance of belonging. Instead, it embraces the notion of not having a home and therefore not belonging, where this would mean revelling in liquidness, incompleteness, boundlessness – liberating potential. “During the waning days of Britain’s rule in India, its last viceroy, Lord Louis Mountbatten, turned to Mahatma Gandhi and said in exasperation, ‘If we just leave, there will be chaos’ and Gandhi calmly replied, ‘Yes, but it will be our chaos.’ Dewoo’s collection of poems resonates with the Gandhian necessity for each society to continuously breach identity formation and performance in its own self-engendered chaotized order/other; to undauntingly breach zero-sum regimes of home(lessness), power(lessness), and (im)mobility.” Hassan Mbiydzenyuy Yosimbom, Interdisciplinary Literature Scholar
