I was not really expecting to enjoy this book too much but it is actually excellent. It draws you into the village's life and is about the impact if the arrival of Christian missionaries. Apparently this was one of, if not the, first African novel written in English and is very readable but has a distinctly African feel to the story telling. One of the best and most thought provoking novels I have read in a long time.
9/10
