The Gurugu Pledge

Juan Tomas Avila Laurel

From Shelf: Reading List: Black History Month UK 2023: Saluting our Sisters.

Informed by first-hand accounts, this funny yet chilling refugees' tale offers a distinctly African perspective on a global crisis.

On Mount Gurugu, overlooking the Spanish enclave of Melilla on the North African coast, desperate migrants gather before attempting to scale the city's walls and gain asylum on European soil. Inspired by firsthand accounts, Juan Tomas Avila Laurel has written an urgent novel, by turns funny and sad, bringing a distinctly African perspective to a major issue of our time.
