There are two protagonists, both of them locked in a godforsaken West African prison. One, a teenage girl, is dying (of what cause, it doesn't say) and tells her life story to the other, a French woman who's in for speaking against the government. It's a bleak story full of violence and rape and deprivation. One gruesome scene after another.
I think I'm just not the kind of person for this kind of book. So far I've liked almost none of the African fiction I've read. ( )
