FLAVORWIRE: The 50 Best Independent Fiction of 2014 - Our Lady of the Nile by Scholastique Mukasonga

the 50 Best Independent Fiction and Poetry Books of 2014.

This “prelude to the Rwandan genocide” recalls the closed world, preceding Fascism, of Thomas Mann’s The Magic Mountain, which is all the more impressive considering this is Mukasonga’s novelistic debut.
