"Set in Mauritius during the uprising following the death of the Mauritian musician Kaya, Kaya Days tells the story of a young woman's daylong search for her younger brother who has gone missing"--
A hazy, riotous novel from the Mauritian French-language author Carl de Souza, KAYA DAYS reimagines the 1999 island race riots (which came after the death of a popular seggae singer while in police custody) as an explosive journey to the end of the night, one animated by huge personalities, revolutionary violence, and the beautiful possibility of another world.
