O livro é qual um jogo africano antigo, vindo do território indiano, o mankala, que se pode dizer ser um jogo popular de semeaduras. Cada jogador ou personagem semeia no campo do outro, o que é uma metáfora do modo do amor acontecer no romance, que também se reporta ao esquecimento e às travessias que as linguagens percorrem no ofício de lembrar. Assim, mediante estranhamentos e cenas imprevisíveis, os personagens enfrentam a tarefa recomeçante da memória; é que estão como que acidentados pela deslembrança, uns; outros, pelo que no lembrar dificulta a tarefa de viver. De todo modo o romance ficciona as possibilidades dos recomeços, após campos e história em derrocadas, trazendo do amor, enquanto movimento de singularização na vida, acervos de alimento ao kalah - depósito símbolo do jogo de semear. O romance parte do momento em que o recomeço se dá, após a derrocada de extensa e inominável barragem, onde na artesania do sonho e do improvável cada personagem vai fazer suas sobreviventes semeaduras. As devastações sofridas por cada um remetem a processos de certo modo também políticos, e, ainda assim, qual o semear do mankala em jogo, os movimentos renascentes dos personagens dizem da potência de amar, vária em cada um deles. Carreando ao trecho mínimo o resguardo das sementes criollas para viver, dentre solitudes e duetos, margens e ensaios grupais, vê-se nos atos mais ínfimos o desígnio e desenho da resistência possível, bela e rica, paradoxalmente despojada de quase tudo o que fora construído como vida coletiva antes. Sem decifrações mais definidas sobre o lugar exato onde se passa a história ou o jogar das semeaduras, embora se saiba ser no múltiplo Brasil, há uma remessa que cada personagem traz, de seus troncos étnicos diversos, de modo que algumas marcas de processos civilizatórios vividos perduram. Muito embora o passado fique como fundo incorpóreo, ante o caráter recomeçante do viver e da memória, que agora conta com o invisível de modo incomum, falante e presente, a própria fundação do lugar como território amado chama a esperança utópica como música de atos. Os lugares: matinhos de caatinga arbórea quais interiores a descerrar sertões; restos de um porto e duna; mangue coleante e aquoso, onde se cata o que seria o comum; homens-ramagens, cujas vidas se dizem assubidas em árvores altíssimas, para dar conta das quedas de seres-coisas quais restos das barragens que não param de cair, um gueto de remanescentes quilombolas, um migrante português e uma índia reabrindo constantemente a cena da relembrança... vão compondo os arruados de Nossa Senhora do Rosário dos Pretos. Quais contas de um fio que vai comunicar-se, a vida grupal se diz em cada recomeço, a gotejar sua urdidura de águas novas em torno de cada um dos personagens do romance. É assim que vicejam semeaduras reais e imaginadas, no jogo de resistir, depois das perdas do comum na vida coletiva. Ao lado da rolante enxurrada de corpos, planta e bicho e terra e águas, que continua ao largo, cada um dos personagens, invisíveis no campo do poder oficial, procura reconstruir o lugar e a si próprio, de modo minúsculo, como uma epopeia do gesto mínimo, dos atos eletivos que o esperançar pode tecer. Entre a arte e os desenhos minúsculos do amor, reacende-se o aprendizado de viver dentre devastações.

Un ouvrage unique dans son genre qui aborde un sujet explosif, d'une gravité sans pareil. L'attentat du café de Paris qui a eu lieu à Djibouti dans la nuit du 27 au 28 septembre 1990 a fait couler beaucoup d'encre. L'auteur nous fait voyager dans le temps et à travers les coulisses ténébreux de l'affaire. Aucun ouvrage n'a traité cette affaire avant celui-ci, c'est pour dire la dangerosité du sujet, qui jusqu'à date est sous la loi de l'omerta. Aux familles qui ont été victimes de l'acte odieux et lâche, à celles qui ont perdues un être cher, à ceux qui ont vu les leurs subir la torture, l'humiliation, l'injustice dans toutes ses formes 33 années d'attente de justice.Ce livre est un témoignage poignant qui jette la lumière sur les dessous de cette affaire. L'attentat restera éternellement gravé dans la conscience collective de chacun et chacune qui ont été éprouvés de près ou de loin. Viendra un jour où les commanditaires, jusqu'au plus haut sommet de l'État, seront amenés à répondre devant la justice.Je terminerai en précisant que de nature je ne suis pas un émotionnel, mais j'avoue pour la première fois, je n'ai pu retenir quelques larmes en parcourant le livre. Il ne faut ni oublier, ni pardonner une injustice: toutes les fois qu'une injustice est commise dans le monde, quelque part des hommes deviennent plus mauvais par découragement.

A future almost shattered. A strange new friend. And a holiday party that does more than raise a glass to good cheer. Now, normally I don't go around asking strange women personal questions, you know, owning a bar and all, it's usually the other way around. But this girl, Venus, who's helping her sister, catering at my brother Liam's wedding, gives me an odd feeling. It's not what you're thinking, and shame on you for thinking that when it's Christmas. Dang, I almost tripped over a reindeer as I went over and talked to her, behind the food table. She's beautiful, no doubt about it at all, but she's got that look in her eye, man, there's no denying it. There's trouble, and in no small way, neither. And when she blurts out the truth, well gosh, you could hear a pin drop, and this is a wedding attended by more than a hundred people, ladies and gentlemen. *** Raine, my sister, points out the guy standing next to Liam, his brother, who's staring at me like I'm his next meal. His name is Darryl, and he owns a local bar, and somehow I figure he's caught wind of why I'm here. It's impossible, of course, because nobody knows except for Raine, but the feeling I get in my gut tells me that he knows I'm not just serving lasagna as a favor to my sister. But he's adamant, despite my claws coming out, amongst all the holly and mistletoe, and I ignore the fact that he's the most gorgeous man I've ever seen, no ma'am, but that's also because he's the last thing I need. But I soon find out that in the few days that I've been here I've learned to ignore my needs and stick to my wants. God strike me dead, but as much as I hate him the moment we exchange pleasantries, I'm also unapologetically attracted to the sumbitch. ...but can we get past this tug of war between us? Then again, it doesn't really matter, since the very reason why I'm hiding out here in Huttonville comes back...with a gun in hand...dressed up as, guess who...
