Confession of the Lioness by Mia Couto

3.0

Confusing full of mystical beliefs. Everyone confesses to being a lion or lioness. I didn't get the meaning of that. At the end when Mariamar emerges for Archie to take with him she is described as a young girl. In an earlier part of the book she's 32 not a young girl, very confusing. I guess the diary contained confessions of a 32 year old Mariamar where as she's really just a young child.
