Chidi's favorite color is blue--he thinks it's the best color in the world. His older sister decides to teach him about other colors seen in their village--the yellow grain, pink flowers and green palm leaves. Ifeoma Onyefulu's vivid photos open up the world of Nigerian village life and introduce children to a rainbow palette, African style. Full color.
The story of a man whose foreign education has separated him from his African roots and made him parts of a ruling elite whose corruption he finds repugnant. More than thirty years after it was first written, this novel remains a brilliant statement on the challenges still facing African society.
Set in the Ibo heartland of eastern Nigeria, one of Africa's best-known writers describes the conflict between old and new in its most poignant aspect: the personal struggle between father and son.
