Lifestyle, Sport & Leisure
Description
This book talks about Africa and its football, trying to illuminate the overflowing, fierce and profound story of a continent that has been overshadowed too many times. The ball is a reflection of the impulses that run through it, and traces a path through which to approach its people, their stories and their desires. Politics, war or religion are intertwined with leather in every city, in every stadium and on every page. Alberto Edjogo-Owono, international with Equatorial Guinea, makes his debut in the literary world trying to discover where this indomitable land gets the strength to rise up after everything was taken from it.

We were born more than ten years ago as a monthly paper magazine, with the experience that this entails in public distribution. The central theme of our magazine is football, but always with an eye on culture, politics and society, and treated from slow journalism. Three years ago, we started publishing books with the same philosophy: football as a theme, but in contact with many other edges. We've already published eight books, three every year. Among the books there is variety: novels, history, journalism, biographies, Spain, England, Africa... We keep a geographic variety.
