The Blind Fisherman

By Mia Couto

"The Blind Fisherman "is a compilation of Mia Couto s early short stories as first presented to the English-speaking world in his two collections: "Voices Made Night "(1990) and "Every Man is a Race "(1994). It was in these collections that Mia Couto first announced himself as a writer of international importance, constructing stories that blended the unique history of Mozambique with a magic realism that both transcended and was inspired by the legacy of Portuguese colonialism and the subsequent civil war."
