Amazing true story of Angolan-Independence and survival of main character, Ludo. She, and at least 4 others and their webs, inter-connect in lead-up to Shakespearean climax. I did have to re-read it to figure out the interconnections...but in so doing, was doubly impressed with Agualusa's brilliant mesh of fiction and non-fiction. Superb. Would love to see his intention of a screenplay realized.
