Esta fábula del célebre autor keniano Ngugi wa Thiong'o narra cómo los seres humanos alguna vez caminaron en cuatro patas, y cómo brazos y piernas menospreciaban a otros órganos como las orejas, la boca y los ojos, generando rivalidades y conspiraciones. Para resolver el conflicto se organiza un concurso que revela que cada parte es esencial y que solo unidas pueden avanzar en armonía. Con múltiples capas de lectura, el relato muestra que el verdadero progreso y la paz—sea física, personal o global—dependen de la unidad y el entendimiento mutuo.
