First edition of “the definitive African book of the twentieth century” (Moses Isegawa). Octavo, original cloth.

Fine in a near fine dust jacket.
"The Kenyan novelist Ngugi, in his remarkable book Petals of Blood, writes with passion about every form, shape and color power can take. A political novel, yes, but you have to add at once ‘among other things’, since what is so compelling about his political fervour is exactly that it does always set politics among other things" (The Sunday Times).
