"Waiting for the Barbarians" pulls you into a stark narrative that feels both distant and uncomfortably familiar. Coetzee's prose is lean yet potent, exposing the machinery of empire and the intricate struggles of morality versus duty. It's the kind of book that haunts long after the last page, offering a reflective lens into our own societies and the roles we play within them.
