| Summary: | MBAAM Dictateur by Cheik Aliou Ndao opens new vistas for African arts not only because of Ndao’s style but mainly on account of a complex thematic that upsets the established idea of an idyllic Africa. Thanks to his deep knowledge of creative writing and African people’s way of life, Cheik Ndao takes us into a universe where animais think better than men and where plants preserve a form of wisdom. Strikingly the author does not translate directly from wolof into French this story of a former head of State ; he rather tells us about the life course of a beloved dietatar; Mbaam Dictateur is neither a novel nor a tale : it is a true work of art. |
