| Description: | The first line of Under the Frangipani - "I am the dead man"- pitches us straight into an African world where people can walk through the door separating reality from the spirit world. Coming back from the dead, the narrator inhabits a Mozambican police inspector who is investigating a murder. A murder where all the suspects are eager to claim they alone killed the victim... Mia Couto's blend of historical truth, individual dreams and earthy humour makes this book as unsettling as it is memorable. |
