    <body><![CDATA[A stunning debut novel by a psychiatric nurse in which illness unleashes the uncanny and essential of human identity, featuring an American missionary's daughter who grows into womanhood amid the social and political conflict of 1980s southern Africa.<br/><br/>&quot;The Leper Compound succeeds remarkably in giving a sense of how, during the last years of white rule in southern Africa, the daily experience of ordinary people was interfused with the larger historical drama.&quot;<br/>—J.M. Coetzee, 2003 Nobel Laureate for Literature and author of Slow Man<br/><br/>]]></body>
