Descriere magazin:
In her fiction debut, Baingana follows a Ugandan girl as she navigates the uncertain terrain of adolescence to become a worldly but conflicted woman. As they cope with Uganda\'s collapsing infrastructure and food shortages, the Mugishas also contend with the universal themes of family cohesion, sex and relationships, disease, betrayal, and spirituality. nIn her fiction debut, Doreen Baingana follows a Ugandan girl as she navigates the uncertain terrain of adolescence. Set mostly in pastoral Entebbe with stops in the cities Kampala and Los Angeles, Tropical Fish depicts the reality of life for Christine Mugisha and her family after Idi Amin\'s dictatorship. nThree of the eight chapters are told from the point of view of Christine\'s two older sisters, Patti, a born-again Christian who finds herself starving at her boarding school, and Rosa, a free spirit who tries to magically seduce one of her teachers. But the star of Tropical Fish is Christine, whom we accompany from her first wobbly steps in high heels, to her encounters with the first-world conveniences and alienation of America, to her return home to Uganda. n nAs the Mugishas cope with Uganda\'s collapsing infrastructure, they also contend with the universal themes of family cohesion, sex and relationships, disease, betrayal, and spirituality. Anyone dipping into Baingana\'s incandescent, widely acclaimed novel will enjoy their immersion in the world of this talented newcomer. n n*Winner of the Commonwealth Writers\' Prize for Best First Book in the Africa region n*Winner of the Association of Writers and Writing Programs (AWP) Award Series in Short Fiction n*Winner of the Washington Writing Prize for Short Fiction n*Finalist for the Caine Prize in African Writingn
