In the early 1980s, anthropologist Gottlieb and her husband, fiction writer Graham, traveled to the Ivory Coast to live with the Beng, a previously unstudied people whose world is encompassed by 20 remote villages. From their distinct perspectives, the authors present a compelling window into the seductive--and frightening--world of the Beng and the parallel, invisible world of spirits that surrounds and guides them.
