Rezensionen
'A brilliant account of Africa's most extraordinary dictator told with wry wit and delicious irony... this book will become a classic' The Economist

'Provocative, touching, and sensitively written ... an eloquent, brilliantly researched account and a remarkably sympathetic study of a tragic land' Sunday Times

'Michela Wrong made the so-called 'Heart of Darkness' much less opaque to me when I visited the Congo. She can do the same for you if you read this brave and witty book' Christopher Hitchens, author of God Is Not Great

'Michela Wrong nimbly balances absurdity and outrage in her portrait of Mobutu Sese Seko and the wreckage he visited - with steady Western sponsorship - on the country he called Zaire. Her book is charged with pity and terror, and with the sort of sustaining humour that she rightly admires in Mobutu's former subjects' Philip Gourevitch, author of We Wish to Inform You that Tomorrow We will be Killed With Our Families
