Description

Tricksters and animals play an important role in West African folklore, in stories that entertain while serving a moral purpose. From Nigeria to Benin, local traditions celebrate the antics of characters such as the cunning spider god Anansi and the equally crafty Tortoise. Through them, animals teach humans to farm, love, survive and thrive, while offering inspiration for moral conduct. This collection brings together vital animal stories alongside tales of origins, life, death and human folly. It is part of Flame Tree 451, a series gathering ancient and modern tales of mystery, crime, the supernatural, horror, myth, fantasy and science fiction for readers of the fantastic.
