✦ Synopsis

A mysterious childhood ritual. An evening of carousing in a carousing in a raucous, village night-spot. The agony of unrequited love. This is the journey that awaits readers of The Tale of The Cow Tail. The collection of both fiction and nonfiction is an eclectic mix of stories that reflect the richness of Nigerian culture. The stories are informative and offer readers insight into African proverbs, perspectives, lifestyles and tradition. They are tales about fundamental human rights, corruption, greed, rebellion, passion, friendship, rage, laughter and human frailty. They also contain elements of surprise as well as morals and odd twists. Although the collection places special emphasis on West Africa, it also highlights experiences of Africans living abroad, thereby fostering global understanding and an appreciation of the Africa Diaspora.
