From award-winning author, T. Obinkaram Echewa, The Crippled Dancer follows an Igbo family struggling in post-independence Nigeria, torn between their individual values and loyalty to one another.
Powerless to ignore his grandfather''s lifelong feud with the village chief, a young and gifted student named Ajuzia is drawn into a world of scheming and intrigue. He soon finds himself up against a disturbing conspiracy – one that seeks to destroy his family''s fortune for good.
In exploring family rivalries, accusations of witchcraft, and age-old proverbs, The Crippled Dancer is a vivid depiction of Igbo village life. Echewa offers a fascinating and cleverly woven insight into the changes wrought by colonialism and the traditions that prevailed – for better or for worse.
''Echewa [is] an impressive storyteller.'' New York Times
