‘Mythological but also cheerfully disenchanted; political and playful; cartoonish but also epical… the African novel may well have delivered its greatest masterpiece’ Sunday Herald
Informed by traditional African storytelling, discover Ngugi wa Thiong'o’s masterpiece.
To honour the Ruler’s birthday, the Free Republic of Aburiria set out to build a tower; a modern wonder of the world that will reach the gates of Heaven. But behind this pillar of unity a battle for control of the Aburirian people rages. Among the contenders- the eponymous Wizard, an avatar of folklore and wisdom; the corrupt Christian Ministry; and the nefarious Global Bank.
