Two leading voices in African literature come together for a remarkable conversation. At the heart of the discussion lies an intriguing question: what would Africa have looked like without colonisation? This is the starting point of Agualusa’s latest novel, Mestre dos Batuques.
Agualusa, known for his imaginative and historical storytelling, explores alternative perspectives on Africa’s past and present in his work. Sarr, an award-winning author and incisive thinker, brings his own literary and philosophical outlook and engages in a dialogue on identity, history and the power of fiction.
Together, they open up a space for reflection and imagination, where literature becomes a means of envisioning other possible worlds. An inspiring encounter for anyone interested in stories that push boundaries and reconsider history.
