Beschreibung

Muindus work analyses the fictional rendition of inhuman politics in Mois Kenya. The author analyses three novels by Wahome Mutahi, the renowned Kenyan humourist, and shows the individual alienation engendered by the political oppression obtaining in Kenya in the period spanned by the novels. He also explicates the resistances produced by this oppression and brings out the vision of social justice espoused in the three texts as the alienated characters endeavour to transcend their debilitating circumstances. The book is an insightful reading in popular fiction and the politics of nation building.
