A General Theory of Oblivion by José Eduardo Agualusa (translated by Daniel Hahn)
Winner of the Dublin International Literary Award in 2017. Set in Angola during the violent years as the country became independent. Ludo walls herself into her apartment with only her dog as her companion - and remains there. Outside life goes on. Lively, extraordinary - and surprisingly fun. Full of character and characters. This for me proved to be a real surprise that I loved.
