Dancing with Cannibals
Author: Monette Bebow-Reinhard
Publisher: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
ISBN: 9781530869084
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 328
Book Description
A CULTURAL EXPERIENCE Congo drums pound out messages that the foreigners coming to claim African land cannot understand. Jean Turken is taken from prison in Belgium during King Leopold II's reign in the early 1900s to help silence those drums and remove the villagers' masks. He is sent to the last of the cannibal tribes to convert them to Christianity and force them to grow cash crops. But his youthful age is thought by Belgian officials as a guarantee that he'll be eaten, allowing the army to move in and destroy this last untouchable cannibal tribe. Simon is another prisoner anxious for some bloodletting, but he is sent to the northern territories of the Congo. He is repulsed by the "half-humans" he meets, people barely existing between cultures as an effect of early conversion and forced labor in the rubber plantations. His goal is to make them happy to become a part of the growing world trade, until he meets Agatha, an American journalist in disguise who has forced her way into interior to take those scathing photos of conquest. Simon becomes a man torn between desires. Filled with historical realities of the brutal takeover of culture, Dancing with Cannibals gives readers a taste of the realities of cannibalism and forced conversion. Jean soon learns the real reason for the desired takeover of this tribe--their holy mountain sparkles with the souls of their ancestors. Jean and Simon met on the boat early in the book and became friends, but are torn apart by opposing desires, and are destined to meet again where their friendship is tested. And Agatha, too, comes to find that her youthful ideology wasn't enough in the face of Simon's desires. AUTHORS Monette Bebow-Reinhard earned a master's in history in 2006; around this time that she was approached by a South African looking for help for his historical novel. A self-professed cultural nut, she is engrossed in copper artifact research and took on this project because of her research of cannibalism. Other published novels are Felling of the Sons, Mystic Fire and Adventures in Death & Romance. Grimms American Macabre is set for a late 2016 release by All Things That Matter Press. Dicho Dasishi Ilunga is a native of the Belgian Congo who moved to South Africa. Long interested in the history and difficulties of the region, he wants people to gain new understandings and bring enlightenment to the cultures of "darkest" Africa. Dicho has had short stories published and is working on other full-length projects. Doctor Love is his other novel available at Amazon, as Dicho Ilunga.
