The Cage is the sixth adult novel by New Zealand author, Lloyd Jones. Two strangers turn up in town. They seem to be survivors of some unknown catastrophe, but are unable to speak of it, unable to say where they're from, who they are. Two townsmen scale up the creation, building a graphic irony that will confine the strangers until they explain their catastrophe, which is deemed important to the town's well-being. In this cage they are exposed to the elements, fed through a hole, cleaned with a hose, and forced to eliminate in situ. The foul smell permeates the narrative. More than anything, The Cage is about what it’s like to be a witness to the suffering of ‘the other’ – human beings from an entirely different milieu to our own. It’s about sharing the planet with people who have gone through something unimaginable to us, and the responsibility we have to help.
