It Shall Be of Jasper and Coral and Love-Across-A-Hundred-Lives

by Werewere Liking

Book Overview

The West African writer, painter, playwright, and director Werewere Liking is considered one of the best literary interpreters of the postcolonial condition in Africa. Her first work to be translated into English, these two novels spare nothing in their satirical portraits of the patriarchal view of African society as they experiment radically with the novel form.
