Brixton Library Radical Readers discuss: The Death of Comrade President

Join the Radical Readers reading group to discuss The Death of Comrade President by Alain Mabanckou.

A poignant and riotous tale of family and revolution in postcolonial Africa, from the winner of the French Voices grand prize and finalist for the Man Booker International Prize.

Congo-born French writer Mabanckou’s intimate tale (after Broken Glass) chronicles the days following the assassination of the Republic of Congo’s Communist leader Marien Ngouabi in 1977.

All welcome
