More about the book

Set against the backdrop of 1961 Lisbon, four Angolan friends plot for a future free from Portuguese colonialism, aware of the looming threat of secret police. As war erupts, two choose exile in France while the other two return to fight as guerilla warriors in a brutal fourteen-year conflict. Reunited in Luanda post-independence, they grapple with the challenges of building a new society amidst the remnants of corruption and violence. Written by Pepetela, a notable figure in Angolan literature, this novel offers a profound exploration of decolonization.
