INTO THE FOREST, AN EXQUISITELY WRITTEN, HARD-TO-DEFINE NOVEL, IS AS MUCH A MEDITATION ON THE HUMAN RELATIONSHIP TO NON-HUMAN LIFE AS IT IS A LOOK AT THE PUSH AND PULL OF GENDER, CLASS AND RACE IN OUR SOCIETIES. 'Why do you want to know about what happened, bhai?' The older man mentions a paper in the UK that may be interested in what happened to Nabi. Its politics are impeccable. His story will resonate there. Nabi looks unconvinced. 'People must know our stories,' says the reporter. 'Why? What good does it do?' There are three disappearances; they could all be 'crimes', but only one of them ends up in murder. Germany, with its unique fractures, is the perfect setting.
