    Palm-Wine Drinkard and My Life in the Bush of Ghosts

    This debut novel by one of Africa's most celebrated authors is a compelling, and full of suspense and disbelief. I liked every chapter of it. It stretched credulity to the utmost and yet it is funny and entertaining. Other entertaining titles I enjoyed are The Usurper and Other Stories, Mango Elephants in the Sun, Triple Agent Double Cross,The old man and the medal,Nervous Conditions, Shake hands with the Devil, Disciples of Fortune
