Wizard of the Crow by Ngugi Wa Thiong'o
Attempts to sum up Africa of the twentieth century in the context of 2,000 years of world history. This novel dramatises with corrosive humour and keenness of observation a battle for control of the souls of the Aburirian people. Fashioning the stories of the powerful and the ordinary, it reveals humanity in its ceaselessly surprising complexity.
