Review:
?To read Mia Couto is to encounter a peculiarly African sensibility, a writer of fluid, fragmentary narratives? New Statesman ?Mia Couto is a white man with an African soul? Henning Mankell
A serious novel that doesn't take itself too seriously. On almost every page of this witty magic realist whodunit, we sense Couto's delight in those places where language slips officialdom's asphyxiating grasp. (Rob Nixon New York Times Book Review 2005-07-17)
Synopsis:
A serious novel that doesn't take itself too seriously. On almost every page of this witty magic realist whodunit, we sense Couto's delight in those places where language slips officialdom's asphyxiating grasp. (Rob Nixon New York Times Book Review 2005-07-17)
In Mozambique after the end of the civil war, local soldiers have been unaccountably blown up without trace. When it begins to happen to United Nations peacekeepers, a high-level delegation visits the village of Tizangara, to initiate an investigation. Alongside representatives of central government and UN officials is an Italian, Massimo Risi, who has been charged with the business of finding out what happened. Risi's interpreter has collated information for posterity based on taped interviews, letters and witness accounts, documents which form the backbone of this book as he narrates it.
