Devil on the Cross
Ngugi wa Thiong'o
This remarkable and symbolic novel centres around Wariinga’s tragedy and uses it to tell a story of contemporary Kenya faced with the satan of capitalism. Ngugi has directed his writing even more firmly towards the commitment that he shows in Writers in Politics and Detained: A Writer’s Prison Diary. The novel was written secretly in prison. It was discovered when almost complete but unexpectedly returned to him on his release. Such was the demand for the original Gikuyu edition that it reprinted on publication.
