Description

Africa has been bedevilled by many evils over the last few cunturies. The latest stem from colonialism and the resultant control of African nations and the way they govern themselves in post-independent Africa. This hass seen control through coups initiated by the West and economic exploitation through the control of not only the governments but also their mode of finance. The latter is Paul B Vitta's focus in his novel FATHERS OF NATIONS. This critique of the novel aims at examining the issues or themes that are discussed in the novel and the narrative mode or the elements of style. This should enhance better enjoyment of the novel for the general reader and better criticism of it for students of this novel or African and Comparative literature.
