About this product
Product Information
Longlisted for the Independent Foreign Fiction Prize 2012 - a dark tale of human ambition by the European master A.S. Byatt called 'A brilliantly inventive writer'. The year is 1903, and the garrison of Yangambi on the banks of the River Congo is under the command of Captain Lalande Biran. The captain is also a poet whose ambition is to amass a fortune and return to the literary cafes of Paris. His glamorous wife Christine has a further ambition- to own seven houses in France, a house for every year he has been abroad. At Lalande Biran s side are the ex-legionnaire van Thiegel, a brutal womaniser whose mind is perennially split in two, and the servile, treacherous Donatien who dreams of running a brothel. The officers spend their days guarding enslaved rubber-tappers and kidnapping young girls from the jungle and are constantly overlooked by chattering mandrills and drenched in the heat of the most remote location in the world; at their hands the jungle is transformed into a wild circus of human ambition and absurdity. But everything changes with the arrival of a new officer and brilliant marksman- the enigmatic Chrysostome Li ge. An outstanding new novel from the critically acclaimed and prizewinning author Bernardo Atxaga, Seven Houses in France is a vivid tale which reveals the darkest sides of human desire.
