Though the settings of these two novels could not be more different — an
isolated island off the coast of Australia vs. a modern American
prison — the moral questions raised by each will have a similar resonance in readers» minds.
Kazma's poetic viewpoint takes us from the
isolated and uninhabited underground structure on an
island that is part of the Svalbard archipelago, to an operational
prison's impervious building to the interior of a museum - like home, revealing stage by stage the secret realities different spaces take on in relation to global circumstances, social relations and the self.
