A Medical Doctor, Berth Ntanga writes at the intersection of the intimate and collective history. Shaped by her human experience and her Congolese roots, her work explores silent traumas, lineage, and resilience. Through a sensitive and embodied prose, she examines memory, violence, and the human capacity to rebuild. *Le Péché de mon père* is part of this approach, where writing becomes a space for truth, healing, and transmission.
