I have read The Emperor from my parents library (more like a stack of books), I love Kapuściński prose ever since. But apparently there was no Lulu, there is a real monster of a book detailing Kapuściński errors and confabulations: https://www.amazon.com/Ryszard-Kapuscinski-Life-Artur-Domoslawski/dp/1781680817 (In Polish the title is "Kapuściński non-fiction"), and most probably Lulu is one of them :(

I have not yet read that other book - it is too long, and probably quite boring (without any Lulus), but it is said to be well researched.

Thanks for the great review. It's good to see how far we've come in regards to corrupt elites and makes me hopeful the trend continues.
