Bessora

Bessora
Vous, les ancêtres

In a tale full of unexpected twists and turns, Bessora takes us through the meandering fortunes of Jane, born in Cornwall in 1667, and Johann, born two hundred years later in the ‘land of proud people’. Bessora draws us into a mysterious, fantastic whirlwind with her magical pen, through a work reminiscent of a fairytale, where a daffodil takes root in a child, where dreams are worth as much as reality, where an interplay between the future and past takes place and where enslaved people become rulers and the rulers are oppressed.
