Globalization has served well to the African literature. Its oral nature, its playful yet educational purpose, its capacity to concentrate in the daily things to harvest fantasy has come to replace the emptiness provoked maybe by the increasing intelectualism in western literature.
Inongo-vi-Makome, writer native of Cameroon, resident in Barcelona recreates in Akono and Belinga a myth on loyalty setting in both jungles: the African and the jungle of western concrete. Akono and Belinga, as any work admits infinite readings: from the purest and exciting infantile statement up to the symbolic and hard cultural misunderstanding.
