The Day The Gun Went Off And Other Stories : A Collection Of Short Stories

Most of the stories in this work recall childhood experiences in Nigeria. They are written for the benefit of children born to Nigerian parents in the United States, who have no idea of their parents' background. Narrated mostly by young boys and teenage girls, the collection regales the reader with tales of intrigue, fun and good humor as some of their parents knew them, at the same time providing them with another source of cultural entertainment. The stories narrated by the women reveal many cultural dilemmas encountered by some African women in America, who find themselves crushed by the cumbersome burden of their gender in a country that has no use for their complicated lifestyle. Hopefully, this collection would serve as another perspective for enhancing multicultural understanding.
