Ooh good idea! My house had a big rain and a lot of my books were flooded, this ones included. The pages are now rotted with black spots so donating it would feel a bit wrong. Maybe it'd be good for crafts since it gives the 'old book' feeling.

Any Mankell recommendations in English translation?
I only found out yesterday that Princess of Burundi is part of a series, and the book seemed more interested in expanding the character interaction rather than the big mystery itself.

Agreed! Ive always had difficulty understanding classic short stories (often thought "thats it? Thats all?" When i reached the end) and sparknotes had been a great help in appreciating the work.
