Sudan
Land of Sudan – The Sweet and the Bitter: A novel that examines the concept of voyage, presenting an explorer rediscovering the world and exposing a man rediscovering his emptiness on a steamer departing from Liverpool to the heart of Sudan. The British narrator attempts to create a heroic role for himself, only to find confusion, repetition, and a fragile meaning. A novel about the Other, it doesn't conform to stereotypes; it turns them upside down. Colonialism, East, West, fear, desire, greed, and everything that seems clear are rearranged within a clever narrative game that blends irony with contemplation, confronting the reader with a disturbing question: Who went to discover? And who returned changed?
