Hvem er Leopardmannen? Who is The Leopard Man? Bwana Chui ni nani?

 

So, who is he? A good question that demands a detailed answer: The Leopard Man is an important character in Bjorn-Erik Hanssen's novel, "The Leopard Man", in English 2008. The man with the animal name is really called Qaarama Marmo and belongs to the Iraqw people in Tanzania who, according to tradition, have "power" over leopards and can communicate with them.
In the book the Norwegian Thomas Andersen is pulled into a strange intrigue he can't get to grips with and, little by little, begins to understand that he is the "instrument of the Leopard Man". Bjorn-Erik Hanssen as an author has also taken on the role of editor for this page: an instrument for a magic power that wishes to spread African music to new audiences.
