About the book
Scholars with knowledge of Sierra Leonean culture generally agree that the vibrancy of drama from Sierra Leone has not been recognised outside the country and is scarcely engaged by the intellectual community. However, the growing corpus of published Sierra Leonean literature would not be complete without the inclusion of plays. The five plays in this volume are from some of the most recognisable dramatists in the country: Dele Charley, John Kolosa Kargbo, Julius Spencer, Tonie French and Mohamed Sheriff. Includes critical analysis by the editor.
