Madame Bâ es una novela escrita por Erik Orsenna, publicada en 2005. La historia sigue a Madame Bâ Marguerite, nacida en 1947 en Malí, a orillas del río Senegal, quien presenta una solicitud de visa para encontrar a su nieto desaparecido en Francia. A través del formulario oficial, Madame Bâ relata su infancia, el amor de su padre, su aprendizaje y su pasión por su esposo peul, así como los desafíos que enfrenta África hoy en día, incluyendo la violencia, los sueños rotos y las mafias, pero también la solidaridad y la riqueza humana. Quince años después de 'L'Exposition coloniale', Erik Orsenna explora las relaciones entre Francia y su antiguo imperio, esta vez desde la perspectiva del Sur.
