Hausaland Tales from the Nigerian Marketplace

98 pp. | Linnet | September, 2002 | Trade ISBN 0-208-02523-5 $$22.50
(4) 4-6 McIntosh has smoothly retold twelve stories he collected from the Hausa people, crediting each of the original storytellers. Short fictionalized interludes about the marketplace introduce each story. Though stiff and artificial, these provide a better understanding of the context in which these stories are told. Black-and-white photos gives glimpses of the vibrant Hausa world. Glos.
