Customer Reviews of The Great Ponds (African Writers)
Excellent If you want African literature without the modernist slant; a story that deals with African traditional living from an *African perspective*, then this is it.
Elechi Amadi weaves a tale that had me glued to my seat from start to finish.
Belive like they do.
I had to read this book for school so I naturally was scheptical at the beginning. But within the first page they had already started the planning to ambush 6 people fishing in their pond. Being an adolecent, that's all that it took. From then on out it was a great story about two tribes in eastern nigeria fighting with both phisical and spiritual weapons. One of the most intreaging aspects of this whole book is how these people zealously these african people belive in the gods. This is a great book about the a culture completely different than ours. It is a learning experience. But the reason that I gave it 4 stars is that I found the end to be dissapointing but with deeper meaning. All in all it is a great book.
