Double Negative unfolds in three interconnected parts, tracing Neville Lister's life from an idealistic university dropout navigating 1980s Johannesburg, through a pivotal day with photographer Saul Auerbach; to his years abroad during apartheid's fall, and ultimately his return to a transformed city and the memory of one house he never visited. Vladislavić's prose renders ordinary moments with crystalline clarity, weaving photography, memory, and the art of observation into a subtle meditation on change and belonging.
