Narrated from the point of view of Seun, an orphan from the
Niger Delta, Stillborn is not only a tale of turmoil and
tragedy; desperation and despair; but also one of optimism
and opportunity. It revolves around the lives of five
characters: Seun, his mother Ranti, herself a girl of limited Stillborn

privilege; Seun’s lover, Aisha, a refugee from the religious
clashes in the North; and Emeka from the South-east, a war
deserter who becomes an unlikely hero. Their lives
intersect in the residence of Dolapo, a civil rights lawyer
from the South-west. And the five lives come together to
paint a vivid picture of Nigeria since its infancy fifty years

University College, Ibadan. After working brie y as a secondary
46-578-2 Matigari Eng Ed. Ngugi wa Thiong’o 430.00 The Great
school teacher, he was commissioned into the Nigerian army and
remained at the Nigerian Defense Academy in Kaduna until his
voluntary retirement and return to the teaching profession on
the eve of the Nigerian civil war in 1965. His unpleasant
encounters with the Biafran authorities are recorded in Sunset in
Biafra (1973). Amadi's portrait of Nigerian society in his rst
46-356-9 Mau Mau Author in Detention Gakaara wa Wanjau 495.00 Ponds
post-civil war novel, Estrangement (1986), vividly evokes the
image of the total destruction of time-honoured individual and
community bonds in the pre-war society. Amadi now lives in
retirement near Port Harcourt, the setting of his rst novels The
Concubine (1966), The Great Ponds (1969) and The Slave (1978)
in which Igbo cultural ambience remains unmistakable.
46-900-1 Mine Boy Peter Abrahams 425.00 The Great ponds
The Great Ponds is about a ruinous feud between the two
villages of Chiolu and Aliakoro. For years, the village of Chiolu
had shed in the ponds of Wagaba (alluded to in the book title)
without hindrance. However, when the neighbouring village of
Aliakoro starts to encroach on the pond, war breaks out between
the two villages, as the people of Chiolu seek to protect their
ownership of the ponds. The story traces its way back to the
56-359-0 Mission to Kala Mongo Beti 520.00 Harshi Syal Gill • Parvin D. Syal
pre-colonial era, a time when Africans believed in the power of
magic and supernatural healing possessed by the traditional
healers (dibias, as used in the book) and divine intervention to
appease the gods.
