The jali - a member of a hereditary group of Mandinka professional performers - is a charismatic but contradictory figure. This book shows how the jali's talents at performance make him a genius at representation - the ideal figure to tell us about the "Africa" that the world imagines, which is always a thing of illusion, magic, and contradiction.
