Une histoire honteuse : "le chef et la viande"

This Daza tale is the comic story of a transgression. It relates the fantastic consequences of refusing to share. After eating meat in secret, a man has to face an untenable situation, the meat he ate starting to sing in his stomac when he is in bed with his wife. His mother-in-law is led to hide under the bed to check what the wife says. This tale stages Tubu social relationships and illustrates, on the contrary, Tubu moral codes. The original version in Dazaga is given with its literal translation.
