Between the deserts of Mali and the rivers of Mauritania is a song known only to Africa itself. It is a song that can be heard every day, as long as the wind isn' t blowing too hard. It is the song of the Luminaries, a group of women with powerful magic wearing long golden dresses. Fadya is the youngest of the Luminaries and on her journey she will encounter and help two fishermen who have inadvertently awoken the wrath of the Goddess of the river. Fadya and the song of the river is a wonderful journey inspired by traditional African tales.
Laura Nsafou, also known as Mrs Roots, is an afrofeminist blogger and author. Previous titles include The Path of Jada and Like A Million Black Butterflies. Her different projects challenge antiblackness and seek for a fair representation of Black women in French culture. Amelie-Anne Calmo grew up in Martinique and has been illustrating professionally since 2018. She is very sensitive to Afro-feminism and the visibility of minorities in her illustrations and is keen to represent racialized characters in her work.
