Rawi Hage, Cockroach.pdf

Cockroach takes place during a bitterly cold winter in Montreal's restless immigrant community, where a self-confessed "thief" has just tried and failed to commit suicide by hanging himself from a tree in a local park. Rescued against his will, the narrator is obliged to attend sessions with a well-intentioned but naive therapist. This sets the story in motion, leading us back into the narrator's childhood in a war-torn country, forward into his current life in the smoky emigre cafés where everyone has a tale to tell, and out into the frozen streets of the city after dark, where the thief survives on the edge, imagining himself to be a cockroach invading the lives of the privileged, but willfully blind, citizens around him. Cockroach combines an uncompromising vision of humanity with razor-sharp portraits of society's outsiders, and a startling, poetic sensibility with bracing jolts of dark humour.
