Mia Couto, José Eduardo Agualusa and Tania Adam
Translators of Dreams
Although they were born half a continent apart, the Mozambican Mia Couto and the Angolan José Eduardo Agualusa are good friends as well as being two of the most respected figures of African literature. They are united by a linguistic homeland—Portuguese—and a similar conception of literature with many thematic and stylistic connections. We have them together for the first time in Kosmopolis to speak of their highly distinctive literature, about the power of fantasy and satire, and also about the future and prospects of the continent.
