Abstract

Every literary work is a fictional production of life and human behaviour in a given society at specific era. Alain Mabanckou Tais-toietmeursis therefore a prototype of some socio-political and economic realities in Africa mainly among the Congolese, where banditry is part of social phenomenon in their countries . His work, although fictional becomes a true depiction of what is evident if we consider the comical especially dishonourable acts that occur among Africans around the world. However, in signaling these facts, this work underlined the artistic components and their implications in a given society at a specific period like the existence of public and official places, authentic establishments and their products found throughout the world, real means of transportation and insights into the immortal African cultures. By presenting these literary components, the author expresses his discontent with cruelty and inhumanity of man to man and his revolt against policie hostile to progress that encourage the younger generation to leave their paternal territory for Eldorado abroad.
