| TITle | MON FABLIER BANTOU «Tales collection» |
| SUMMARY | "Mon fablier bantou" is a collection of thirty fables inspired by African culture in general and Bantu culture in particular. These tales, which sometimes feature personified animals, sometimes human beings, all highlight the dynamics of human relationships in all their complexity and diversity. The situations described in the texts are sometimes complementary, sometimes contradictory, but always instructive, in a humourous, simple and, above all, wise tone. This is the choice the author seems to have made: to say things in a pleasant and colourful way, while at the same time instructing, warning and edifying. These are things written to soften people up and make them fit for the realities and vicissitudes of life. |
| ABOUT THE AUTHOR | David Massoma Pandong is a civil engineer graduated from the Ecole Nationale Polytechnique de Yaoundé and is a research officer in the Prime Minister's office. He is married and has 4 children. Although he has a scientific background, he is passionate about literature. |
