Impressions of Africa

The first of Roussel's two major prose works, Impressions of Africa is not, as the title may suggest, a conventional travel account, but an adventure story put together in a highly individual fashion and with an unusual time sequence, whereby the reader is even made to choose whether to begin with the first or the tenth chapter.

Prima dintre cele doua opere majore in proza ale lui Roussel, Impresiile Africii nu este, asa cum poate sugera titlul, o relatare de calatorie conventionala, ci o poveste de aventura pusa impreuna intr-un mod extrem de individual si cu o secventa temporala neobisnuita, in care cititorul este chiar facut. pentru a alege daca sa inceapa cu primul sau cu al zecelea capitol.
