Kwaku struggles to gain wealth and an easy life, but his foolishness constantly gets in his way. This description may be from another edition of this product.
In so may "developing" nations, the women are strong and keep things together. Guyana seems to be no exception. I believe it to be a rather sad book, with Kwaku being tossed around, not knowing why and having no grip on his destiny. Without Miss Gwendoline he would not have made it to the end of the book. But the description of his adventures are absolutely perfect and pantagruelish.
