Description
From the award-winning author of *We Need New Names* comes an exhilarating novel that uses the animal kingdom to explore the fall of an oppressive regime and the subsequent chaos and opportunity. The story follows the dramatic events after the long-serving leader, the Old Horse, is overthrown, leaving a nation of animals to navigate the path to true liberation. Narrated by a chorus of animal voices, the novel unveils the ruthlessness required to maintain absolute power and the boundless optimism needed to dismantle it. Bulawayo masterfully employs animal allegory to unmask the surreality of global politics, offering a clearer understanding of our world through a vivid, folklore-inspired narrative.
