dc.description.abstract | Mongo Beti occupies a central place in African literary field. His novels are often marked with a revolutionary cachet for political and social situations around him dictate the tone of his writings. This article examines the language and social reality in Mongo Bed's Trop de soleil tue I’amour (1999) and Branle-bas en noir et blanc (2000). In a humorous, ironic and satiric style coloured with an African French, the author openly decries the bitter realities of the social, political and economic situations in Cameroon and concludes by warning the leaders about the dangers awaiting the country should they fail to listen to the voices of minority. | en_US |
