Wizard of the Crow
R180.00
To honor 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 forklore and wisdom, the corrupt Christian Missionary, and the nefarious Global bank.
Informed by traditional African storytelling, wizard of the Crow is widely considered Ngugi Wathiongo’s masterpiece.
