“Un océan, deux mers, trois continents”, by Wilfried N’Sondé

How about a literary eclipse in the course of your day? We invite you to get away from it all and make yourself comfortable for a read in the dark. A beautiful escape guaranteed!

Nsaku Ne Vunda, a character inspired by real life, was born around 1583 on the banks of the Kongo River. Orphaned and raised by missionaries, he became a priest and was sent by his king as ambassador to Rome. Little does he know that his journey to Europe will take him to the New World, and that the ship he is about to embark on is laden with enslaved people.
The fluid language of writer and singer Wilfried N’Sondé helps transform this terrible journey into an unforgettable reading experience.

Bring your own picnic and enjoy it at the end of the reading.
