Ti Malice and Bouki

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ti Malice is a trickster character and nemesis of Tonton (Uncle) Bouki in Haitian folklore. While Ti Malice is smart and guileful, Uncle Bouki is hardworking but is also very greedy.[1] It is the manipulation of this greed that allows Ti Malice to often get the best Uncle Bouqui. These characters are said to be a split of Anansi, the trickster character of the Ashanti of Ghana.
