About
A man regains consciousness to find himself naked in a mass grave, with no idea who he is. His thought is survival, but in a religious war survival depends on knowing which side you are on. Donning another man's military uniform, he drives off and enters a nearby town to discover that the occupying soldiers have been waiting for someone very much like him. Suddenly, he finds himself in power. His first act is to save a woman about to be murdered by soldiers. The woman, as it turns out, has a history with the man, and knows more of him than he knows of himself, or does she actually have the right man?

"'it's horrific, violent and deeply troubling. But it's also undeniably powerful, a thought-provoking book that lingers in the mind'"
Winnipeg Free Press
"'Dodd takes great aesthetic risks. JEW's surrealism and compelling symbolism make its violence difficult to contextualize, which renders it much more discomfiting. Though the novel will inevitably upset and confound, it is also indisputably thought-provoking'"
Quill & Quire
"'An astonishing work marked by its stark and stripped stylistic attack... Few manage to make volumes where structure and content echo each other exponentially, shaping a third work of sorts'"
