About Camara Laye
About The African Child (Camara Laye's L'enfant noir)
The African Child (originally L'enfant noir) is Camara Laye's celebrated 1953 autobiographical novel — one of the foundational works of Francophone African literature. The young Camara grows up in colonial Guinea in the Malinke tradition, watching his blacksmith father work, learning village wisdom, attending colonial school, and eventually leaving for France. A wistful celebration of traditional African life.
