	ALBERT NYANZA - LoveToKnow Article on ALBERT NYANZA
		A study of the changes going on in the rift-valley in which the lakes lie leads, however, to the belief that the Albert Edward and Albert Nyanzas are drying up, a process which the nature of the drainage areas is helping to bring about.
		Albert Nyanza, on the other hand, is threatened in the distant future with destruction from another causethe filling of its bed by the alluvium poured into it by the Semliki, the Victoria Nile and, in a lesser degree, by other streams.
		Charged with all this matter, the Semliki, as it emerges from the region of forest and cataracts (in which, often closely confined by its mountain barriers, the stream is deep and rapid), becomes sluggish, its slope flattens out, and its waters, unable to carry their burden, deposit much of it upon the land.

	ECLIPSE OVER LAKE TANGANYIKA, Albert Russo, Domhan Books
		Reading one of Albert Russo's renderings of his works from one of his native languages into the other is always a fascinating experience.
		The metaphorical "eclipse" of the title is the change from an immaculate majestic flness "carved in ebony" to the flness of an evil fed and encouraged by the white colonization of Africa, whose aftermath extends from the Katanga rebellion in the sixties (the time of the novel) to the Rwandan genocide of the nineties.
		Albert Russo raises then the ultimate question of the effect of colonialism, a political system in which humaneness (love, tolerance and delight in natural beauty) is eventually dissolved into the disheartening racial equality of greed, contempt and murder.
