C'est génial ! On s'attendait à un roman politique sur l'esclavage et on lit un formidable hymne tellurique qui prend la dimension d'un continent. Dans cette Afrique du Sud du XIXe siècle, le sang et la mort, la passion et la violence, le sexe et la haine sont au rendez-vous. En toile de fond : l'émancipation de Galant, esclave sublime dont la révolte incarne la fierté d'un peuple déchu. Ecrivain afrikaner en lutte contre l'apartheid, André Brink se révèle ici bien plus qu'un contestataire : un poète de l'épopée totale. André Clavel, Les Nouvelles littéraires. Dans ce style chaleureux et sensuel qui vrille le coeur, André Brink fait vivre ses personnages avec une intensité incroyable. Ils sont tapis au fond de nous pour toujours... Au total, un splendide roman chargé d'histoire, de passions et d'amour de l'Afrique. On l'ouvre et on le dévore. Jean-Philippe Caudron, La Vie.
