Kama Sywor Kamanda

Opis

Is the brutality of states legitimate? What happens when love is alone, facing the forces of evil? Love, hope and courage characterize the characters in the story "The Unfathomable Destiny of Men", which has contemporary resonance. This novel is set in contemporary Africa, where serious injustices prevail. This story with tragic accents tells us the life of African immigrants, attracted by exile, but always condemned to precariousness and misery. Far away are the shores of destiny for the main characters of the second novel. Through these initiatory quests and intersecting destinies, this story unfolds, in depth, the eternal theme of the human being whose thirst for the absolute comes up against the multiple obstacles constituted by social norms, established powers and the very weaknesses of the individual. Kamanda renews the thousand-year-old tradition of the African griot. Through this story, is it not the very quest of Africa that the writer is proposing to us, whose mission is to bring his people to the "shores" of a new "destiny", which would see harmony restored in a just and appeased world?
