malaria:The poor man was busy being an errand boy for Chude and Ngozi when he infact opposed the relationship. I must confess that the novel set my young mind in romantic flame during my primary school days. I was infact dreaming of my own Ngozi then. |

missviva: Same to me. I read it like a million times. Every sentence is so familiar with my environment. As an adolscent, i totally recognised the scene. What of the sentence that goes like this " Anwu na acha obochi uka dika o na adi iche". It was so true then. Coming back from church as an adolescent, I always feel that Sunday is so special in all ramification. The other sentence, "Chude nuru isi osikapa nne ya mara na ubochi uka a ama adi iche ka ubochi uka ozo". So true then as mum only cook rice on Sundays those days. How it reminds me of my adolescent days. What about the fight between Chude and the guy that beat up Ngozi that starts from "buru uzo metu mu aka". During those days, no matter how angry you are with your opponent, you always look for a justification for the fight by asking the other guy to touch you first, so that you can always claim that he started the fight. I can go on and on. The novel is just classic |
