Wênd Kûuni Collection

Set in the early 19th century on a bend in the Niger River, the spiritual journey of Wênd Kûuni (Mooré for "God's Gift"), a young shepherd voyaging throughout the Mossi Kingdoms in the name of family and their search for identity. In the manner of African folk tale, Gaston Jean-Marie Kaboré's extraordinarily beautiful series deals primarily with childhood youth and explores the big questions of life through themes that make or undo our world; tolerance, exclusion, dialogue and distrust.
