Book Summary
The rise and fall of Katamalanasia, a vast country in sub-Saharan Africa subjected to the bloodiest, but also the most absurd, dictatorship. The dead never quite die there, a fitting outcome since the living have little right to live there. If Sony Labou Tansi's observation, as funny and delightful as it may be, may seem pessimistic, it is because he describes, beyond the African continent, the world of the next century: "Basically, the earth is no longer round. It never will be again. Life and a Half becomes this fable that sees tomorrow with the eyes of today."
