Description
Rainy Season by Jose-Eduardo Agualusa is a powerful portrayal of a country torn apart by conflict. A journalist's investigation into the disappearance of a poetess and historian uncovers a tangled web of fact and fiction, revealing the disillusionment of a nation in turmoil.
This novel, carefully translated from one of Portugal's strongest writers, brings to life the agony of a struggle for independence. With a complex narrative that blends fact and fiction, Agualusa masterfully recreates the disappointment and desperation of a country on the brink of collapse.
