Book Review: At Night All Blood is Black

At Night All Blood is Black
By David Diop
Review by George
This book uniquely encapsulates the experiences of Senegalese soldier Alfa as his exposure to violence amplifies his psychological deterioration. Writing viscerally, Diop does not dilute his depictions of the battlefield, so I would not suggest this to those uncomfortable with textual violence. Regardless, an enthralling read, I highly recommend.
