Aprašymas
'A deep tale of the spirit; a classic of the African imagination' BEN OKRI
Akara-Ogun comes to the narrator as an old man and asks that he record the strange story of his life. Many years earlier, as a twenty-six year old orphaned after his father married a shape-shifting witch, he first ventured into the Forest of a Thousand Daemons to hunt.
There, he comes across enchanted kings and infuriated townspeople, sixteen eyed monsters, a City of Birds, and ghommids with two heads and two horns. Armed only with his wits, and a bag of supernatural charms, Akara-Ogun struggles to find his way home from a forest where nothing is as it seems.
The Forest of a Thousand Daemons, the first novel written in the Yoruba language, is an entrancing, inexhaustably rich, journey into the strange, magical unknown.
