Onitsha J M G Le Clezio French edition
Onitsha
J M G Le Clezio
Onitsha tells the story of Fintan, a youth who travels to Africa in 1948 with his Italian mother to join the English father he has never met. Fintan is initially enchanted by the exotic world he discovers in Onitsha, a bustling city prominently situated on the eastern bank of the Niger River. But gradually he comes to recognize the intolerance and brutality of the colonial system. His youthful point of view provides the novel with a notably direct, horrified perspective on racism and colonialism. In the words of translator Alison Anderson, Onitsha is remarkable for its almost mythological evocation of local history and beliefs. It is full of atmosphere sights, sounds, smells and at times the author s sentences seem to flow with the dreamy languor of the river itself. But J. M. G. Le Clézio never lets us forget the harsh realities of life nor the subsequent tragedy of war. A startling account and indictment of colonialism, Onitsha is also a work of clear, forthright prose that ably portrays both colonial Nigeria and a young boy s growing outrage.
