Archipelago Books

A nonprofit press devoted to contemporary & classic world literature

Bachtyar Ali is a model novelist […] like Achebe and Pynchon, Morante and Ortese, who knew how to give a concrete anthropological and narrative foundation to their vision—one made of tragedy and poetry, or rather, the fairytale and the epic. A balance that few writers in the world are still capable of achieving.

An expansive, invigorating conversation between two great thinkers. @Mukasonga says that if she were to write on contemporary life in Rwanda, it would be "to write about an unencumbered Rwanda, because one doesn’t want to be a hostage of history." Highly recommended reading! https://t.co/shlisoxXeC
