“Alors le nomade dans tout ça ? Il est déjà loin. Il a contourné l'horizon. Difficile de la coincer vivant et de livrer sa moelle sous la forme d'une brique de pages imprimées. Difficile de le mettre en mots. Même avec des mots ronds, des mots chauds, des mots caresses, des mots mappe-mondes. Ne reste plus qu'à se faire libre-rêveur à défaut de le suivre à la trace sur les routes, les chemins buissonniers, les lacets qui montent et descendent à bout de souffle.”
Abdourahman A. Waberi

“between rubble and sovereign sun
all water consumed
all wailing subdued
since dawn
time
this land remains the same:
the open wound of Africa”
Abdourahman A. Waberi, The Nomads, My Brothers, Go Out to Drink from the Big Dipper

“In your opinion, where do private and political life, personal history and History meet? You know the answer, Maya. You say it unhesitatingly - in art and literature.”
Abdourahman A. Waberi
