The Palm-Wine Drinkard by Amos Tutuola

adventurous challenging funny mysterious tense fast-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Plot
  • Strong character development? It's complicated

4.0

The story sort of tumbles along, in an "and then this and then that and then..." kind of way, which gives it an oral storytelling vibe. I really enjoyed some of the quirks of the writing style, and the wackiness of the plot.
