King Baabu
Wole Soyinka - Winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature Price: $16.95
This chronicles the debauched rule of General Basha Bash who takes power
in a coup and exchanges his general’s uniform for a robe and crown
In the manner of Jarry’s Ubu Roi, this is a ferocious, crackpot satire of the plague of dictatorship on the African continent
Weaving together burlesque
comedy, theatrical excess and storytelling, it has been hailed as a brilliant
paraody of political regimes in Africa and beyond
