Ondjaki, Books, Fiction and Literature, Fiction, Literary, Slow Red, A gripping portrait of contemporary urban Africa—by turns magic realist, deeply emotional, and savagely satirical. In a crumbling apartment block in Luanda, impoverished families hoard memories to survive a corrupt regime. Odonato—nostalgic for the days of socialism—searches for his son, a petty criminal. As his hope drains away, Odonato’s flesh becomes transparent and his body increasingly weightless. A captivating blend of magical realism, scathing political satire, and literary experimentation, Slow Red confirms Ondjaki as one of Africa’s major writers.
