Title Details
Description
A natural storyteller, Somé will captivate you with the tale of his extraordinary life. Born under the shadow of French colonial rule in West Africa and raised and trained by Jesuits, Somé tried to reconnect with his people, the Dagara. They viewed him with suspicion until he underwent a harrowing, month-long initiation. This first-person account of his spiritual reintegration reveals the timeless value of initiation and ritual and challenges the Western listener to reexamine the world of "facts" and "logic" in light of the magical, tribal world of the Dagara.
