As ficções de Kapuscinski
«Sometimes the literary idea conquered him. In one passage, for example, he writes that the fish in Lake Victoria in Uganda had grown big from feasting on people killed by Idi Amin. It's a colourful and terrifying metaphor. In fact, the fish got larger after eating smaller fish from the Nile. Kapuscinski was experimenting in journalism. He wasn't aware he had crossed the line between journalism and literature. I still think his books are wonderful and precious. But ultimately, they belong to fiction.»
Artur Domoslawski, autor de uma biografia de 600 páginas sobre Ryszard Kapuscinski, lançada ontem na Polónia, em declarações ao Guardian.
