Nihilism And Negritude: Ways Of Living In Africa

In a searching meditation on ways of living in modern Africa, C?lestin Monga dispels the stereotypes that cloud how outsiders view the continent, and how Africans sometimes view themselves. He shows how dance, music, bodily experience, faith, and mourning reflect a nihilism that finds meaning and joy in a life that would otherwise seem absurd.
