Fairy Tales by Kama Sywor KAMANDA.

      Аннотация: Kama Sywor KAMANDA brings new life to the tale. No doubt because he is a Bantu and because he borrows from traditional sources. That being said, however, he doesn't limit himself to his equatorial Africa. True, he plunges deeply into her forests, her rivers, and her lakes, but he does so in order to travel and to open himself up to the charms of Asia, particularly the Arab world. Nor does he forget the yellow world, the "saffron-coloured" world.Such symbiosis can be found, even beyond those details, in the plot of the tales themselves and in the lesson or the moral which they present. In Tales, the family remains the centre of community life and love becomes, more so than in the traditional tales of the evening story-telling sessions, the heart of sacred relationships. Furthermore, Kama Sywor KAMANDA stresses aesthetics. He stresses the beauty of African art objects, and also the beauty of song! It's not by chance that polyphony, like the chant, has its origins in Africa.
