In 'Siete casas en Francia', Bernardo Atxaga transports us to Yangambi, in the Congo, where the army of Leopold II of Belgium, under the command of the poet Lalande Biran, imposes its law. In this exotic and at the same time oppressive scenario, a series of extravagant and ambitious characters create a circus of ambition and human absurdity. The arrival of Chrysostome Liège, an enigmatic and accurate officer, marks a turning point in this story that, through humor and adventure, explores the darkest side of the human condition.

Bernardo Atxaga, pseudonym of Joseba Irazu Garmendia, is a Spanish Basque writer and self-translator.
