Logan himself - as his friend Peter Scabius rises to literary stardom - also suffers a mighty fall. By the s, after a period as a schoolmaster in Biafra, and now quite forgotten as a writer, he is living on dogfood and selling revolutionary newspapers in London - a profession which leads him into involvement with the Baader-Meinhof Gang.

    The World of Books Sweet Caress William Boyd by Richa Mohan © Hello and welcome to another episode of the World of Books at EnglishWaves. Today we take up the book Sweet Caress - The Many Lives of Amory Clay, by William Boyd. In this masterpiece, Boyd, beautifully, brings to life Amory Clay, a female war photographer, in an inventive, clever and masterful way. The novel is written in the first person and interspersed with photos, bringing home the point that we are reading not just another book or autobiography but that of a photographer. The Prologue straightaway tells you about the first moment Clay gets hooked on photography, “In my hands I had the power to stop time, or so I fancied.” The book is divided into different parts, spanning almost a decade, as you travel with the protagonist on her life journey. Some parts, such as entries in her “The Barrandale Journal 1977,” are dotted throughout the book, recording flashbacks and other aspects of her life at that moment. The story starts with Amory, talking about her growing up years, the influence of her uncle, who first hands her a camera at the age of 7, and her way of killing perceptions of the people of her time. When she is born her father, who always wanted a son, gives her an androgynous name and announces that he has a son. The way she relates the incident makes it clear that she is a woman with a mind of her own, and as we watch her life unfold we see her not only unwilling to fit into a box but is restricted by no limits.

  • Mister Johnson Is a 1990 Movie Based on the 1939 Novel by Joyce Cary. It Details The

    Mister Johnson is a 1990 movie based on the 1939 novel by Joyce Cary. It details the British attempt to bring their version of civilization to the continent of Africa. Civilization in this movie is in the form of a road that will connect the large city of Kano with the outlying villages and therefore opening up trading routes and the opportunity for prosperity. Both the movie and the novel on which it is based demonstrate the conflict between both the culture and characters of colonial Nigeria in the 1920s. The Africans in the movie are portrayed in a myriad of ways. The main character, Mister Johnson, has a strong desire to cast off his African heritage in exchange for the British lifestyle. He abandons native garb for a more westernized look. He refers to England as his home – even though he has clearly never been there. In the end his downfall closely mirrors that of the British Empire: both fail due to overextension. Good point, although he is clearly connected to his fellow Africans. Johnson’s Machiavellian approach to problem solving ends ultimately with him being fired and eventually executed. Waziri is the local spiritual leader. He is depicted as conniving but also clever. He seems to recognize the threat of imperialism, and even pays money for information regarding the British plans. But what exactly he plans to do with this information is never fleshed out in the film. Maybe just guard against British undermining Emir rule. Most other Africans in the film are used to juxtapose the culture of the indigenous people against that of the British occupiers.
