“What is the secret that surrounds the enigmatic protagonist,
Didi, now back in his African village after a sojourn abroad; indeed, what is
the secret of his past in Europe? (Didi is actually obsessed with firm ideas of
"reparation for Africa"...) The exceedingly intriguing, apparent
nigh-sepulchral character/essence of our protagonist in this work provides
salutary lessons for us all.”
“An awesome read; probably the late Obi Egbuna at his best.
African village is portrayed very well...and by the time we realise the
terrible things Didi had done whilst overseas we have glimpses into madness
from the inside. The psychiatrist's reaction to Didi brings a wry smile tinged
with sobriety…”
