THE REPUBLIC OF MONKEYS

Bag om THE REPUBLIC OF MONKEYS

"The style greatly suggests French influence; the humour, severity and even serenity are certainly French oriented, something reminiscent of Guy de Maupassant and Gustave Flaubert but combined! The theme is African politics at work, replete with the usual accompaniment of religious pastors and their chanting, lamb-like flocks. The author highlights the spurious, albeit utterly powerful, influence of religious cults; the occult, witchcraft and religious mambo jumbo being most exhaustively and successfully used by African head of states. The collection is also a steadfast comment on African values and social issues like the dreadful female genital mutilation, environmental degradation and limitless greed for power ¿ all evils which are roundly blamed as hindrances to progress"Lieutenant-Colonel Ulysses Chuka Kibuuka Academic and Ugandan Army senior officer
