About the book

This book gathers the fantastic stories full of wisdom and humor collected by Italian photographer Christian Piana during his trip to the countryside of Mozambique, and recounted by the writer Luana Chnaiderman de Almeida. We meet the girl who marries a pigeon, the dogs that do domestic jobs, the witch who wishes to devour the hunter and gnaws the baobabs with her only tooth, the young woman trapped in a drum and the diplomatic conflict between monkeys and terrapins. This is a journey through tales, myths and legends kept alive by popular tradition.
