  • Grief Child

    Winner of the Commonwealth Writers’ Prize, Africa

    It was midnight. The little village of Susa slept in darkness in the heart of the forest farms, among the tall trees. The mahoganies and sapeles stood tall in the dark sky, providing a canopy over the village and deepening the density of the pitch-dark night. From a distant cluster of neighboring villages, Adu heard a dog bark. Another dog howled. In this village midnight was a dangerous time. It was better not to be awake or hear noises….

    In this haunting tale the power of light struggles with the power of darkness to claim the life of Adu, the “grief child”.

  • Anu Gbaa Ajo Egbe (Igbo)

    Ositadimma Amakeze has been heralded as the modern-day Achebe.

    Anụ Gbaa Ajọ Egbe… (fable)is a contribution towards promotion and preservation of folktales as tradition in Igbo land. Let the title, which at the first looks controversial, not deter you, for where there’s Tortoise they are limitless possibilities. Remember, it was he, who chose to be addressed as “Unu dum” when he joined a flock of birds to a feast in heaven. You better see why he is the Nkpọnkpọ kpọkịrịkpọ, one of a kind that no other animal is capable of begetting but she Tortoise herself!

    The novel documents the adventures of Mbekwu, the tortoise who is regarded as the trickster in Igbo folklore – equivalent to Ananse in Twi lore or the Coyote in Native American lore.

  • Les Cagoulés Du Campus

    Nous vivons tous dans un monde où les réalités menant à notre épanouissement nous sont défavorables. Mais une chose paraît aussi incontestablement sûre et évidente. C’est qu’en réalité, les grandes réalisations de ce monde ont vu le jour grâce à des humains audacieux et les grandes légendes qu’elles soient d’hier ou d’aujourd’hui ont une chose en commun:un début minable. Aucune icône n’est née telle, sans être passée d’abord sous le crible de l’essai, de l’échec et enfin de la persévérance.
