From critically-acclaimed author Mbella Sonne Dipoko, A Few Days and Nights follows the dramatic love life of a young Cameroonian student as he faces the obstacles of living as a Black man in France. When Doumbe makes the journey from Cameroon to Paris to study, he dreams of becoming a writer. Living in the city of love, however, quickly begins to take its toll on his romantic life. Despite falling for a French girl, Th�r�se, and vowing to leave his womanising's ways behind, he can't resist falling back into old habits when he meets her beautiful best friend. Neither Th�r�se's suffering nor her father's disapproval of her African boyfriend can convince him to give up his unfaithful lifestyle. But a tragic event suddenly forces Doumbe to face the consequences of his actions... A Few Days and Nights paints a vivid picture of 1960s Paris through the eyes of its students, detailing their hopes, failures, and experiences of deep prejudice.
