Publisher's Synopsis
In a bid to take a stand against the brutal dictator Bamutu, Kalamachi opens up Cafe Royale, which becomes the site of revolutionary speeches, a place of trade, a rendezvous point for lovers, a place to settle conflicts, and where discussions to topple Bamutu are made. When the dictator realises that his rule is under threat, he orders his troops to end all political opposition against him. A love tussle ensues between Bamutu and Kalamachi, who are both in love with Malita. Bamutu forces her into a relationship with him but she is in love with Kalamachi - who tries to evade the watchmen and troops to gain access to her. Cafe Royale turns into a place where people meet to discuss, write and distribute leaflets in the underground which are sold clandestinely in the country to spread awareness of Bamutu's reign of terror. Will the people who gather in Cafe Royale be able to unravel the myth of Bamutu's rule... And will Kalamachi and Malita be reunited? Servants in Love of the Underground is a pacy, novel that will appeal to fans of military and political literature. Author David Ssembajjo is inspired by Gabriel Garcia Marquez and his novel The Autumn of the Patriarch.
