Now in paperback, a brutal and dreamlike story about the first victims of the transatlantic slave trade.This powerful novel presents the early days of the transatlantic slave trade from a new perspective: that of the sub-Saharan population that became its first victims. One day, a group of villagers finds twelve of their people missing. Cameroonian novelist L onora Miano presents a world on the brink of disappearing--a pre-colonial civilization with roots that stretch back for centuries.
Who is responsible? Where have they gone? A collective dream, troubling a group of mothers in a communal dwelling, may have some of the answers, as the women's missing sons call to them in terror; at the same time, a thick shadow settles over the huts, blocking out the light of day.
It is the shadow of slavery, which will soon grow to blight the whole world.Miano renders this brutal
