About this listen

Journey into the enchanting world of West African folklore with Robert Nassau, who dedicated four decades to serving as a medical missionary in Africa. Arriving at Corisco Island in 1861, he immersed himself in the vibrant cultures of Gabon, Cameroon, and Equatorial Guinea. This collection features 61 captivating folktales, many presented in multiple versions, gathered from the rich traditions of Mpongwe, Benga, and Fang storytellers. Nassau meticulously translated these tales into English, complete with a list of animal characters featuring their names in the original languages. Let these stories transport you to a land where animals speak and lessons abound, all beautifully narrated by Laura Gibbs.
