THE SHADOW KING by Maaza Mengiste
Publishers Weekly interviewed Maaza Mengiste about her second novel, THE SHADOW KING. The gripping narrative casts a new light on Ethiopian women soldiers during WWII. “I want to reshift the masculine perspective on war,” she said, “so that we can begin to reframe women at the center of world history.” Publishers Marketplace also featured THE SHADOW KING in their Buzz Books Fall/Winter Sampler. W.W. Norton will publish the book on September 24th, 2019.
