Mariama B\u00e2 \u201c une si longue lettre\u201d which translates to \u201cSo long a letter\u201d. I\u2019m really enjoying it so far, both the style and form. It\u2019s an epistolary novel, and recounts the main character Ramatoulaye\u2019s life experiences. It\u2019s a novel that covers many important themes related to Senegalese culture and the life of women in the 1970s and 1980s. Senegal was a colony of France till 1960 when it gained its independence under the leadership of L\u00e9opold Senghor. Senghor is well known for the promotion of Negritude, a literary movement emphasising African values. Senegalese culture is fascinating, especially griots who are a hereditary class of musicians and storytellers who have passed down historical narratives and kept traditions alive for generations.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-714cbe2 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"714cbe2\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a702dec elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"a702dec\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\r\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Une si Longue lettre by Mariama Ba I\u2019ve travelled all the way west to Senegal for Mariama B\u00e2 \u201c une si longue [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":201,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-228","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.allegraayida.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/228","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.allegraayida.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.allegraayida.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.allegraayida.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.allegraayida.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=228"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www.allegraayida.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/228\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":235,"href":"https:\/\/www.allegraayida.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/228\/revisions\/235"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.allegraayida.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/201"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.allegraayida.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=228"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
