After reading this book, I found it hard ot imagine it was written by a grown man. It has less literary value than the vandalism of derranged lunatics inside the stall of highway service station rest rooms. If you're looking for a book on the Congo, which I reccommend, as it has a sad, yet fascinating history, I reccoment "The Poisonwood Bible".

This review is from: Full Circle (Paperback)
In the tradition of Joseph Conrad, the author explores the heart of darkness in a traditional African village. But unlike authors in the Great Tradition, his young hero, a Congolese boy, discovers himself by moving from the city to the country, not, like Pip in Great Expectations, from the country to the city.An excellent story that will hold the interest and throw a revealing light into the heart of darkness in Africa and on the African culture in which this novel is rooted. While this novel is in the tradition of Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness, the African heart is explored sympathetically and realistically from the African perspective, in the tradition of Chinue Achebe.
