ISBN 9780435271244 · General
A novel of a Western educated Nigerian struggling to bridge the chasm between his education and his tribal upbringing and culture. On his return to Nigeria he gains a position with the Scholarship Board and is immediately offered bribes by people trying to get a scholarship. Scandalised, he initially refuses but after getting into financial difficulties and losing his faith in his countrymen’s ability to modernise after his family forbids him to marry the woman he loves due to a tribal taboo, he eventually succumbs to the temptation and is caught in a government ‘sting’.
