Douze années de recherches et de voyages ont été nécessaires à l'auteur pour retracer la généalogie de sa famille. Il reconstitue dans ce livre fascinant deux siècles d'histoire d'une famille dont l'ancêtre fut arraché de son petit village africain et vendu comme esclave en Amérique. En dépit de quelques erreurs historiques, un ouvrage absolument remarquable qui ne laissera personne indifférent.
Science Fiction- Michael was quite young when he discovered that some of his playmates bled if they cut themselves, and some didn’t. For a long time, he didn’t think about it.nor did it seem strange to see zeppelins being attacked by jet fighters above London’s force field, or glimpse queen victoria walking with Winston Churchill in the mall. Not at first. But later he thought about these things-he couldn’t help it. The world was real, and yet unreal. It was all desperately worrying. So Michael and his friends formed a society to investigate the world around them. Despite the terrible things they discovered, things that made some of them insane, they never actually guessed the truth about the overman culture. Until Mr. Shakespeare told them.
