In Mamba Point Blues, Christophe Naigeon sweeps readers off on the poignant, unforgettable journey of his hero Jules Canot through the highly controversial founding of Liberia.
From the trenches of Great War France to beautiful and deadly Africa, by way of Jazz Age America and the glory days of music hall Paris, Jules searches for meaning, a Forrest Gump for a new era. Over the course of his travels and encounters, Jules is by turns a renowned artist, a diplomat, and a spy, but always foremost in his heart is his lost love, Sigrid.
