Understanding Mozambique better,
This review is from: A Shattering of Silence (African Writers Series) (Paperback)
"A shattering of silence" tells the adventures of a young mozambiquan girl travelling through her shattered country and following the death of her family. The book is a spirited response to the brutal effects on the mozambiquan civil war, which lasted from 1975 to the early 90th.
