From The Ambiguous Adventure, a timeless best-seller, to The Temple Guardians, a lesser-known but equally powerful and more political novel, he evokes what was his main source of inspiration: his own journey. Peul, a native of the Fouta Valley, having studied in France and become a Minister in the first government of Senegal, he was one of the builders of Independence, beyond his own country.
