The Elegant Terrorist and Other Stories
by (mozambique) Mia Cotto Et Al.
About This Novel
Three stories and one interview. The story is adapted from a script co-written by the two authors, as if people who have lost their identities are trapped in absurd situations, and they are living in their own Rashomon: a man from Angola broke into the airport with vinegar, causing a dispute about identity during the interrogation; a man planned to kill his lovers who carried past memories, but was defeated in their narrative; a robber who visited his grandmother and granddaughter during the civil war unexpectedly revealed a secret past. The interview revolved around the two's upbringing and writing concepts. They "laughed, joked, and bet that literary creation is not always an act of deep loneliness."
