Audio Clip: Ryzard Kapuscinski

As I heard the audio clip about the writer Ryzard Kapuscinki, I could see that all the things that we have discussed in class, are said in the clip. First of all, I think that Kapuscinski is a very passionate man for society conflicts most of all in Africa. As we see from his friend Lawrence, his most important book or most famous book is The Emperor, a book also about social problems in Africa. His writer friend explains how he disguises everybody in Africa because he is a white man and still nobody notices his prescence. Also when they talk about Gabriel Garcia Marquez and Kapuscinski, and tell us that they were great friends, it´s fun to know and try to compare and contrast his novels. This friendship also may explain why latinoamerican literature has so much to do with Ryzard Kapuscinski and why here he is so important.
