"As the title suggests, the tone of the book is tragic and desperate, the author was uniquely placed to bear witness to the abrupt end of nearly 600 years of colonial governance."
"I learned more than I can capture here ... read the book to find out about surprising aspects of European colonialism in Africa, the slave trade, and the Angolan Civil war circa 1973/74 (and so much more)."
"Trademark reporting from Kapuscinski, with him plunging right into the middle of the 1975 chaos of post-colonial Angola, as the country struggles with its suprising new-found freedom. Totally riveting."
