Book Description:
|
Perhaps one of Africa's most controversial writers, Ouologuem won the Prix Renaudot in 1968 for his novel The Duty of Violence. This reader, which also includes the first ever English translations of A Black Ghostwriter's Letter to France and an excerpt from his erotic novel, A Thousand and One Bibles of Sex, is provocative in content and highly indicative of the skill and style with which Ouologuem writes.
