A modern novel on how the arrival of the white man in Africa inexorably turned the traditional African society upside down. The protagonist, once a strong tribal head, watches helplessly as the primitive ways are chipped away by the missionary zeal and the modern medicine of the Europeans. It lags a little after a great start, only to close explosively. Post-modern readers would find this a classic on colonialism.
