La Vida, Después / Afterlives
Entre los 100 libros más notables del 2022, de acuerdo con The New York Times. Entre los 10 libros favoritos de Barack Obama del 2022. La más reciente novela del Premio Nobel de Literatura 2021. Una conmovedora historia de amor con la guerra y el colonialismo como telón de fondo. Cuando todavía era un niño, Ilyas les fue arrebatado a sus padres por las tropas coloniales alemanas; tras años de ausencia y de batalla contra su propio pueblo, regresa a la ciudad de su infancia, donde sus padres han desaparecido y su hermana Afiya ha sido dada en adopción. Otro joven regresa al mismo tiempo: a Hamza no lo robaron para que combatiera, sino que lo vendieron. Con tan solo sus ropas a la espalda, se limita a buscar trabajo y seguridad... y el amor de la hermosa Afiya. Apenas acaba de comenzar el siglo XX y alemanes, británicos, franceses y demás países se han repartido el continente africano. A medida que estos jóvenes supervivientes intentan rehacer sus vidas, la sombra de una nueva guerra, en otro continente, amenaza con llevárselos de nuevo. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Among the 100 Notable Books of 2022 according to The New York Times. ONE OF BARACK OBAMA'S FAVORITE BOOKS OF 2022 From the winner of the 2021 Nobel Prize in Literature, a sweeping, multi-generational saga of displacement, loss, and love, set against the brutal colonization of east Africa.
A moving love story set against the backdrop of war and colonialism. When he was just a boy, Ilyas was stolen from his parents on the coast of east Africa by German colonial troops. After years away, fighting against his own people, he returns home to find his parents gone and his sister, Afiya, abandoned into de facto slavery. Hamza, too, returns home from the war, scarred in body and soul and with nothing but the clothes on his back--until he meets the beautiful, undaunted Afiya. As these young people live and work and fall in love, their fates knotted ever more tightly together, the shadow of a new war on another continent falls over them, threatening once again to carry them away.
