This ethnographic novel follows the life of Omar Dia, the oldest son of a West African sorcerer. When his father falls ill and dies, the great sorcerer vomits a small metal chain onto his chest. Following the path of his ancestors, Omar swallows the chain, becoming his father's successor, which means that he takes on the sorcerer's burden. The book also describes how custodians of traditional knowledge are creatively adapting to the forces of globalization--all in a highly accessible narrative text. 001358113 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001358113 650_0 $$aSonghai (African people)$$vFiction. 001358113 651_0 $$aAfrica$$vFiction. 001358113 655_0 $$aElectronic books 001358113 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aStoller, Paul.$$tSorcerer's Burden : The Ethnographic Saga of a Global Family.$$dCham : Springer International Publishing, ©2016$$z9783319318042 001358113 830_0 $$aPalgrave studies in literary anthropology. 001358113 852__ $$bebk 001358113 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-31805-9$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001358113 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1358113$$pGLOBAL_SET 001358113 980__ $$aBIB 001358113 980__ $$aEBOOK 001358113 982__ $$aEbook 001358113 983__ $$aOnline 001358113 994__ $$a92$$bISE
