A Dakar Childhood

Évaluation du livre

En savoir plus sur le livre

It is the moving story of a girl who, after her mother disappeared when she was a year and a half old, forms intense relationships with her father and grandmother. Strong-willed, she wants to change things, clashing with numerous taboos and customs of her community. As a result, she experiences a turbulent childhood and a vibrant adolescence that will shape the rest of her life. A life rich in details, it seems like a mirror through which we see our own lives unfold, and perhaps this is why Nafissatou's novel captivates us from the very beginning. "The Colors of a Life" also reflects Africa in all its realities: celebrations, fashion, traditions, myths, and rituals.
