Aggiungi al carrelloPaperback. Condizione: New. An astonishing new narrative of Mandu Yenu, a throne from the ancient Kingdom of Bamum. "Most of the time, it is the power of men that we remember." With these words, which open Léonora Miano's text for Objects Talk Back, an astonishing new narrative unfurls around Mandu Yenu, a throne from the ancient Kingdom of Bamum (present day Cameroon). The Germans long claimed the object was a gift from King Njoya to Kaiser Wilhelm II. Miano reads "between the lines of beads and cowrie shells" to show the complex intricacies of colonial and gender relations. Dismissing all pretense of egalitarianism between colonizer and colonized, she hones in on the very nature of power-how and by whom it is defined-wielded-subverted. King Njoya said he "felt like a woman in his relationship with the Germans." Miano takes this as a prompt to examine contrasting cultural notions of femininity and thus reveals how central women are to the story of the throne. As the very name of the object suggests, it is the power of women we should remember.

Paperback. Condizione: New. An unflinching look at the realities of racism, poverty, and exclusion in contemporary France-told through the eyes of a young Cameroonian mother navigating life on society's edge. At just twenty-three, Louise finds herself stranded in a Paris shelter with her baby, Bliss, in her arms while battling homelessness, racism, and the struggles that come with being a female immigrant trying to keep her dignity alive. Yet amid the chaos, Louise encounters a fragile network of mothers and survivors from the Maghreb and sub-Saharan Africa, each carrying their own story of violence, addiction, and resilience. Based on a pivotal moment in author Léonora Miano's own life, Stardust is a luminous story of the quiet power of choosing life. The novel was first composed over twenty years ago and remained unpublished for years. Now, Miano invites readers into her world, shedding light on the invisible corners of French society and offering a moving meditation on motherhood, dignity, and renewal.
