Water after War: Seasons in Angola
By T. Mullen
()
About this ebook
Water after War tells about searching for drinking water during a cease-fire. In an African country three times larger than California, joy and tragedy coexist in towns where the last buses pulled out twenty years ago, and where the last seen elephants were slaughtered to be grilled. This is a story of a gorgeous, war-ravaged land where abductions, anarchy, and strolling through minefields form part of daily life. Welcome to Angola – a strangely novel and hospitable country where each day is beautiful, though bizarre.
