Pulling in two different directions, one towards a more global context, and the other inwards, to the specificities of a particular tradition, this book stresses the convergence of two sensibilities: the naturalist aesthetic and a humanitarian ethos which takes up the responsibility for the suffering of others.
This study offers a literary history of the war novel in Africa and argues for the genre's distinct contribution to the literary culture of the continent. The war novel is a form of people's history that participates in a political struggle for the rights of the dispossessed.
