Diplomatic Pounds and Other Stories

By Ama Ata Aidoo

A celebration of Ama Ata Aidoo's work presented as a festschrift with a broad spectrum of articles and personal memoirs from scholars and literary artists. It conveys the full extent of Aidoo's place as a literary innovator and an exponent of radical social and cultural thought in Africa and internationally on account of its self-consciousness and gender equality. Included are a study, by playwright Femi Osofisan, of the Nigerian film industry and its impact on live theatre and negative images in contemporary Ghanaian music.
