Description

A number of African wisdom gorgeously illustrated by artists from Ghana, South Africa, Zimbabwe, Canada, the USA and more.

Aphorisms are universal. They give guidance, context and instruction for life’s issues, and so they lend a hand us take into account each and every other and the world around us. We use them each day, yet never take into accounts where they came from or why they exist.

In this beautifully illustrated collection, Eric Walters brings us classic sayings from the places where this shared wisdom started. Ashanti, Sukuma, Akan and Kikuyu: all of these cultures use the portable and easily shared knowledge contained in aphorisms, and from these cultures and more this communal knowledge spread.

This book is a party of art, of community and of our common history.
