Jean Malonga
Jean Malonga (February 25, 1907 in Kibouende, French Congo – 1985)[1] is credited as one of the earliest of the modern Republic of Congo writers. Prior to Malonga, Congolese literature in Brazzaville consisted of scattered pre-World War II French language works. He began his career as a writer in the Congolese language magazine Liaison. He was also a Congolese politician who served in the French Senate from 1948 to 1955.[2]
