📱 eBook en inglés THE PALM-WINE DRINKARD

This classic novel tells the phantasmagorical story of an alcoholic man and his search for his dead palm-wine tapster. As he travels through the land of the dead, he encounters a host of supernatural and often terrifying beings - among them the complete gentleman who returns his body parts to their owners and the insatiable hungry-creature. Mixing Yoruba folktales with what T. S. Eliot described as a creepy crawly imagination, The Palm-Wine Drinkard is regarded as the seminal work of African literature.
