Produktinformationen zu „The Heritage (ePub)“
Through his privileged travels and interactions with a wide spectrum of peoples in different parts of the world, Sinachi Ukpabi observed a growing interest in his rich African heritage. The Heritage is thus an attempt to satisfy this growing interest, towards promoting racial harmony.
In The Heritage, Ukpabi follows in the footsteps of his Umuahian literary forbears like Chinua Achebe, Pius Okigbo, Chukwuemeka Ike, Elechi Amadi, Ken Saro-Wiwa and Obi Nwakanma. He captures the struggle of the African in the post-colonial 20th century global society, through the experience of Nnaka Alozie, a promising son of Igboland.
It tells of his travails in the first 30 years of independent Nigeria with Claire, a British girl, within the complex matrix of interracial marriage, civil war, race relations and cultural heritage, sequel to his audacious quest for the white mans education. The book volume has been intentionally reduced and an attempt made to write in fast-paced but flowing language to equally appeal to the Facebook generation.
