In Africa, the development of "dictatorship fiction” as a vehicle for depicting the authoritarian state arose more slowly than in other parts of the world. In Unmasking the African Dictator, Gichingiri Ndigirigi offers a collection of essays that fully examine the figure of the "Big Man” in African arts. This volume features twelve articles from both established and emerging scholars who undertake representative readings of the African despot in fiction, drama, films, and music.
