Produktinformationen zu „The Seven Solitudes of Lorsa Lopez (ePub)“
Sony Labou Tansi's surreal portrait of a despised and incompetent regime is a biting, burlesque fable, incisive in its description of postcolonial life.
History has been silenced in this modern African state: only the voices of the dead cry out for justice. It is a cry answered by Estina Bronzario, the Woman of Bronze, determined to act against the political and moral corruption of male-dominated society.

'Central Africa's greatest writer.' New York Times
'No greater genius than Sony Lab'ou Tansi.' Independent
'Sublimely surreal allegory... Tansi [is] one of Africa's important voices.' Publishers Weekly
