Saint-Louis, Sénégal

I'm reading a series of short stories from Senegal writer Boubacar Boris Diop. In his collection La nuit de l'Imoko he describes his hometown, Saint-Louis. The story Retour à Ndar-Géej is a particularly engaging read on the city's history and how it went from capital of the country to forgotten town once Dakar was chosen as the new capital.
