وصف الكتاب: It is 1797 and the African kingdom of Segu, born of blood and violence, is at the height of its power. Yet Dousika Traore, the king's most trusted advisor, feels nothing but dread. Change is coming. From the East, a new religion, Islam. From the West, the slave trade. These forces will tear his country, his village and the lives of his beloved sons apart, in Maryse Conde's glittering epic.
المراجعة التحريرية: If there were no tools on a desert island, I would take Segu by Maryse Conde. This generational family saga has so many layers that I can read and reread it, in between figuring out how to build a raft -- Chibundu Onuzo * Time Out * A wondrous novel about a period of African history few other writers have addressed -- Charles L. Larson * New York Times Book Review * Richly textured and detailed, this narrative, alternating between the lives of various characters, illuminates magnificently a little known historical period. Virtually every page glitters with nuggets of cultural fascination -- Howard Kaplan * Los Angeles Times * Maryse Conde is an extraordinary storyteller who brings the history of an African kingdom alive as vividly as if it existed today. Suspenseful, shocking, panoramic and hugely engrossing, the novel explores the politics and impact of external and domestic forces on nineteenth century west Africa through wonderfully realised characters and their complicated relationships. This is a great novel: unputdownable and unforgettable -- Bernardine Evaristo A stunning reaffirmation of Africa and its peoples... It's a starburst -- John A. Williams Conde's story is rich and colorful and glorious. It sprawls over continents and centuries to find its way into the reader's heart -- Maya Angelou
عن المؤلف: Maryse Conde was born at Pointe-a-Pitre, Guadeloupe, in 1937 and spent most of her life in West Africa (Guinea, Ghana and Senegal), France and the US, where she taught at the University of California, Berkeley, UCLA and Columbia. The publication of her bestselling third novel, Segu (1984), established her pre-eminent position among Caribbean writers. She won Le Grand Prix Litteraire de la Femme in 1986 as well as Le Prix de L'Academie Francaise in 1988 and was shortlisted for the Man Booker International Prize in 2015.
