I am beyond appreciative for the use of poetry in this play and its contradiction with the character development and their importance! I would truly love to see this play live since it would have been a delightful piece.

vipula's review against another edition

This is a beautifully written book about Kenyan Culture and their struggle for independence. It shows how brutal, cheap, manipulative, money monger the white man was. How the capitalists exploited the natives. One of my favourite quotes from the book is
"Two laws. Two justices.One law and one justice protects the man of property, the man of wealth, the foreign exploiter. Another law, another justice, silences the poor, the hungry, our people."
It shows the exploitation of women in the Kenyan society. And it also focuses on the concern of 'neo-coloniser'.
So, in short I would add that this is a short but rich text. A must read.
