<p><font face="Verdana">In rural Africa， an American couple is drawn into a tense， gauzy world of belief， myth， and magic.The Road Builderis a spellbinding story of romance and exploration. Will and Kate Haslin reach Ngemba with only the most vague idea about what life in Africa requires， and with no clear understanding about their own relationship. But they arrive with a concrete， if secret， goal: to uncover the shadowy past of Kate's willful-and dying-Uncle Pers.Lost in a vast savanna， with only a hint of common language， the young Americans must reshape themselves inside a culture without expectation. And when they learn that Uncle Pers may be The Road Builder， a mysterious figure with a colonial connection， the dangers they face turn personal.In Ngemba， history merges with myth， fable， and even gossip so that sometimes one must hallucinate the truth. It's an isolated world of realists and visionaries， who understand that "sometimes the only way out of a place is to go further in." But most important， Ngemba is the tense， hazy village where Will and Kate learn to dream what they know.With the seductive prose of a gifted storyteller， Nick Hershenow weaves sophisticated questions about the nature of truth and reality into the epic but very personal story of a man and a woman who must define themselves against endless mysteries.A luminous and wise debut that heralds the arrival of a major talent.</font></p>
