From Folktales to Fiction: investigating the story-telling tradition of the Comoros
The publicised publication of Zamir's novel Anguille sous Roche in 2016 and its subsequent translations granted international visibility to Comorian literature for the first time. My research examines how this French-speaking novel reflects and challenges the Comorian oral story-telling tradition.
