Ginga was an unforgettable queen in Angola during the 17th century;
determined warrior, lucid and cunning ruler; she rebuilt her
kingdom several times, commanded armies, negotiated and battled the
great powers and other African rulers. She had a fiery and
voracious private life and until her final days she was the owner
of her destiny. In this novel, Jose Eduardo Agualusa reclaims such
an unknown and unforgettable character with the hand of a born
priest in Pernambuco, narrating the history of Ginga. Going
inside a hidden territory and captivated by a form of life that he
never imagined, through his eyes we discover a sensual world, vital
and raw, where despite the cruelty, the greed and relentless rules
of power, hides the possibility for love and beauty.
