Wayo Guy and Other Nigerian Short Stories Chima Uchendu

This collection of humorous stories will make you laugh and learn; they will make you smile with joy. They are clever hybrids of African and Western stories of adventure, of attempts at deception, of love and affection, and of family and friends; they are told in a unique writing style that elevates the writing itself to classic prose and poetry while the reader is always rewarded with surprise endings. This is Uchendu's second book; his first book, The African Girl, a novel, was published in 1998 (Sungai Books, NJ).
