“Nowadays, all that remains of the
splendour and beauty of the hey-days of Kampanga
are the mounds where huts once stood. These mounds,
which a careless traveller may not even notice, are all that
is left in the district now known by the locals as Chinenengoma.”
Set in the fictional country of Kangwa, it is the story of Muwana, a man of the people whose head is turned by power and status.But this is a story with hope. An evocative and descriptive narrative offers the reader a valuable insight into a culture which is not often explored in the English language, a culture which lends interesting and different nuances to Lilemba’s use of the language.
