Verdict: stick
J.M. Coetzee’s 12th novel, The Childhood of Jesus, is set in an unnamed country, at an unspecified time. Everyone here, we soon learn, has come from elsewhere, across oceans on ships from lands also unnamed, having shed the memory of their past lives and identities like redundant snakeskins. They are given new names on arrival; even their ages are mere estimates.
