      Everything, even thought, takes place somewhere. When remembering ordinary happenings and previous conversations, most people automatically recall where they took place and at what time. If not, they may ponder, “Now, where was I?” For more important

      Shorts o' Mwangop' - Wild Tales of an Unbelievable Land - Julio Carlos

      Disclaimer and warnings.

      Warning for readers:

      ––––––––

      The stories presented here, are based on the Angolan reality, which may or may not be, fiction. The author, as are the few individuals that still bear some sanity inside these hellish borders, is still trying to figure out where the distinction lays, as everyday events defy the notion of the so called Impossible.

      ––––––––

      Disclaimers: Overall, and for reasons of law, this is a work of fiction, and ANY resemblance or reference to places, people or happenings written here are fictional, a product of the writer’s wild imaginations, or are used as unrelated satire, therefore, in a fictional manner. All the mentions of Angola, or any relatable thing, is reference to a land in my napkin called Angola by sheer happenstance.

      ––––––––

      Trigger warnings: This book contains allusions to graphic images of assassinations and police brutality and other happenings told crudely. Oh, there are also cuss words and... well, Angola.

      If you are Angolan and this offends you then go herd snails you fucking hypocrite.
