Summary

The noted American playwright and novelist Jenkin has created a stunning new fiction in N Judah, the story of a San Francisco woman who, upon hearing of the death in New Orleans of her very special son, travels with an old lover to the American South. What they encounter in New Orleans is as hidden and bizarre as the city itself: a mirrored maze of deception and half-truths that eventually erupt into violence.
