About this listen

 In the rich storytelling traditions of West Africa and the Caribbean, one figure stands out as both mischievous and wise: Anansi the Spider. Unlike mighty gods or fearsome monsters, Anansi is small, clever, and often underestimated. Yet through wit, cunning, and storytelling, he became one of the most important trickster figures in world mythology.
