This is a book of both literary essays and poems about Africa from an Angolan perspective. Framed around Mark Twain's essay The Awful German Language, this book is ideal for secondary schools anywhere in the world, with activities for honing personal essay writing skills. The poetry in it brings out the vices and the virtues from Africa, painting a mosaic of greed, suffering, incompetence, vanity, promiscuity, betrayal, despair, neocolonialism, self righteousness, hope, humility, resilience and untapped wealth. It is an ideal textbook for English classes at the senior levels of high school.
