Tadjo moves between Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone, tracing the human, ecological and spiritual dimensions of the Ebola crisis.

In the Company of Men is a short novel by Ivorian writer Véronique Tadjo, written in the wake of the West African Ebola epidemic. It asks: how does a virus travel through bodies shaped by colonial history, fragile healthcare systems, deforestation, poverty? What does responsibility mean when catastrophe is collective?

Part fable, part documentary, part chorus. For readers interested in global literature, ecological writing, pandemic narratives, and postcolonial fiction that refuses simplification.
