Wizard of the Crow Is A Must Read

I have fallen in love with the first class prose of Ngugi wa'Thiongo since I read his now classic novel The River Between in high school and his highly political novel Petals of Blood motivated me to do a unique painting of the same title in red Japanese ink.

Ngugi wa'Thiongo's latest novel
Wizard of the Crow is already being celebrated as a classic historical fiction on the agonies and ironies of post-colonial Africa and
Wizard of the Crow is the longest book in an African language after the Holy Bible. It is a must read.

Sweet Keshi,
I am yet to know your analysis of my Scarlet Tears of London.
