Produktbeschreibung
From award-winning author, T. Obinkaram Echewa, The Crippled Dancer follows an Igbo family pulled between their loyalty to each other and their individual values - a conflict highlighted by the changing customs of Igbo life after gaining independence. Powerless to ignore his grandfather's lifelong feud with the village chief, a young and gifted student named Ajuzia is drawn into a world of scheming and intrigue. He soon finds himself up against a disturbing conspiracy - one that seeks to destroy his family's fortune for good. In exploring family rivalries, accusations of witchcraft, and age-old proverbs, The Crippled Dancer is a vivid depiction of Igbo village life. Echewa offers a fascinating and cleverly woven insight into the changes wrought by colonialism and the traditions that prevailed - for better or for worse. 'Echewa [is] an impressive storyteller.' New York Times
