In 2018, DiÔegane Latyr Faye, a young Senegalese writer, discovered in Paris a mythical book, published in 1938: The labyrinth of the inhuman. We have lost track of its author, described in his time as 'Rimbaud nßegre', since the scandal triggered by the publication of his text. DiÔegane then embarks on the trail of the mysterious T.C. Elimane, confronting the great tragedies of colonialism and the Shoah. From Senegal to France via Argentina, what truth awaits him at the center of this labyrinth? Without ever losing the thread of this quest which monopolizes him, DiÔegane, in Paris, frequents a group of young African authors: all observe each other, discuss, drink, make love a lot, and wonder about the need for creation from exile. It will especially attach itself to two women: the sulphurous Siga, holder of secrets, and the fleeting photojournalist AÞida.
