Cocoaïans - Naissance d'une nation chocolat

Cocoaïans - Birth of a Chocolate Nation

Between the sweetness of chocolate and the bitterness of cocoa, Ivorian writer Armand Gauz is back with his ever-militant, clear and powerful pen.

He has just published his new work “Cocoaïans - Birth of a Chocolate Nation” with L'Arche.

Chocolate, hard drugs, colonialism, and class struggle—Gauz is back with a 20th-century historical epic that tells the story of chocolate and the world's addiction to cocoa powder, available in your bookstore!

A faithful ambassador of United Souls, Gauz has chosen Aimé Césaire, the poet of Negritude, for the literary rentrée on France 24.

A United Souls creation by artist Olivier Bonhomme.
