A review by joanna_ohne_h
Das Geständnis der Löwin, by Mia Couto

3.0

I loved how Couto writes and his metaphors. BUT it was not my favourite book by him. The story is rather brutal and I hate the omnipresent fatphobia. The end was a bit too predictable.
In the German version on the Back there is no hint of Mariamar and that it is her story too.
I liked the mystical atmosphere.
