## Résumé

This book invites you on a journey to Benin. Come along as Sophie Modert shows you through poems and pictures what she has witnessed herself during her voluntary service: a poor, but joyful land in all its colours. In her first published book the young author from Luxembourg manages to describe the complex harmony of a landscape so very different from our own. At the same time she uncovers the unavoidable paradoxes of a country struggling to be independent, while still marked by colonial times.
