On Didier Gondola's (2016) Tropical Cowboys
One
of the books that I have recently read and that I really wanted to write a
review of for this blog is Didier
Gondola's fantastic publication on the Bills, a cowboy-inspired
subculture in colonial Kinshasa. I have tons of notes and have started
incorporating some of his ideas and observations in my own draft (obviously
with all the appropriate referencing) but somehow I have not quite found the
time to write the kind of review this book deserves. In the meantime, I leave
you with this nice CNN
report on Gondola's research that Thomas Page published 8 December 2015.
