Thanks (last blog on The Soccer War

Again in the novel and in a very precise time, Kapuscinski talks about what for him is the most important honors of all. "´I know him`my friend Kofi said. ´He isn´t African.`That is the highest compliment that can be paid an european. It opens every dorr for him." (p.230) In the last pages of the novel Kapuscinski demonstrates, and lets the reader understand that by coming back to the topic of Africa he feel complete and full. Although this man always traveled and visited many places in the world, the one place that made his spirit blow was Africa. In my opinion, it is very interesting that a European has such an open heart to consider Africa, part of him. I really loved this novel, because it not only narrates a stroy, but it includes real fatcs, real events that make a big part of the worlds history. I also liked the fact that I could relate many parts in the novel, with past or current events that have happened in the world and specially in Colombia. Kapuscinski was a great writer and a great reportes.
