Book
Waiting for the waters to rise / Maryse Condé ; translated from the French by Richard Philcox.
"Babakar is a doctor living alone, with only the memories of his childhood in Mali. In his dreams, he receives visits from his blue-eyed mother and his ex-lover Azelia, both now gone, as are the hopes and aspirations he's carried with him since his arrival in Guadeloupe. Until, one day, the child Ana̐s comes into his life, forcing him to abandon his solitude."--Back cover.
