Amadi's masterpiece of African literature captures village life and practices not yet touched by the white man. The novel's beautiful, hardworking protagonist, Ihouma, is admired by all in her village. Yet those who express their love for her meet with mysterious tragedy, leaving her devastated. This enticing odyssey, where exemplary attributes go unrewarded and the boundaries between myth and reality are muted, outwits readers with unexpected twists that make them want to keep turning the page.Other titles by African writers from Waveland Press: Andreas, The Purple Violet of Oshaantu (ISBN 978147864584) Ba, So Long a Letter (ISBN 9781577668060) Campbell, My Children Have Faces (ISBN 9781478635017) Emecheta, Kehinde (ISBN 9781577664192) Head, The Collector of Treasures and Other Botswana Village Tales (ISBN 9781478607601) Head, Maru (ISBN 9781478607618) Head, A Question of Power (ISBN 9781478634690) Head, When Rain Clouds Gather (ISBN 9781478607595) Kubuitsile, The Scattering (ISBN 9781478634591) Nwapa, Efuru (ISBN 9781478611011) p'Bitek, Song of Lawino & Song of Ocol (ISBN 9781478604723) Plaatje, Mhudi (ISBN 9781478609575) Rifaat, Distant Views of a Minaret and Other Short Stories (ISBN 9781478611288)
