What this book will change for you
Yannick Ehui is the finest architect in Abidjan. His glass towers dominate the lagoon and his name makes headlines. But a crack appears in his latest tower, and with it his firm, his marriage and his health collapse.
Exhausted, he goes to rest in his grandmother's village. By the river he meets Nanan Kouadio, an old builder of houses who carves his beams by hand and never looks up from his wood.
The old man agrees to teach him how to build, on one condition: he must start with the building he never built, his own inner tower. From the foundations of the body to the framework of the mind, up to the spire of light of the spirit.
A novel of initiation in the spirit of The Alchemist, bringing the method of The Architecture of Ascension to life through emotion.
