A narrative tour de force, this novel has got everything — friendship and betrayal; faith and treachery; hope and cynicism; murder, mayhem and no shortage of drama, all set against the backdrop of comtemporary Nigeria. As
you would expect from a Soyinka work, it’s got plenty of colourful characters, profound insights, witty commentary, and the most elegant language! In Soyinka’s expert hands, the apparently disparate strands are woven together with a master story-teller’s aplomb.
Chronicles of the Happiest People on Earth, is a great and unputdownable read from start to finish.
