Found in the Sahel Wilderness

Found in the Sahel Wilderness is a visionary novel of quest, reckoning, and renewal. At its center is Kuma, a restless seeker who comes to believe that humanity has strayed from the divine order of creation by refashioning life around conflict, domination, and estrangement from Nature. Drawn into the vast spiritual and ecological landscape of the Sahel, he embarks on an extraordinary journey to recover the wisdom human beings have forsaken. There, through encounters with animals, birds, insects, and reptiles-creatures that have remained faithful to the rhythms and laws of the natural world-Kuma seeks answers to the questions that haunt the human condition: how to live, how to belong, and how to return to harmony with creation. Both philosophical and imaginative, the novel invites readers into a world where wilderness becomes teacher, witness, and mirror. Conceived as the opening volume in a larger series and scheduled for publication in 2026, Found in the Sahel Wilderness offers a bold and original meditation on spiritual dislocation, ecological truth, and the redemptive possibilities of listening anew to the living world.
