Ajaiya and the witch doctor, Amost Tutuola - Nigeria;
Tekayo, Grace Ogot -...more
My most memorable short story in this anthology is 'Africa kills her sun'by Ken Saro-Wiwa. It constitutes a dark satire on the effects of all-encompassing corruption and pervasive graft in Nigerian society and Africa in general.

Quite a moving anthology... especially Ken Sarow-Wiwa's
it was part of my high school curriculum. Very interesting short stories from all over Africa. Got me to appreciate how people in other African countries go through. I also got to see the similarities that we as Africans have. I found myself reading the short stories over and over again, not only for my exams but also for fun. its one of those books that got me to appreciate the importance of reading books. Real book.
Amazing read.
Great book with many short stories from different parts of Africa. Very interesting indeed!

Various is the correct author for any book with multiple unknown authors, and is acceptable for books with multiple known authors, especially if not all are known or the list is very long (over 50).
If an editor is known, however, Various is not necessary. List the name of the editor as the primary author (with role 'editor'). Contributing authors' names follow it.
Note: WorldCat is an excellent res...more
