An illuminating metaphor for colonial history. Very well-researched and theoretically grounded in the postcolonial literature of Fanon, Cesaire and the like. The closing of the novel is appropriate, given its intention as a critique of colonialism.
A dense plot that I can only wish that was even richer and more detailed.
