Feud

By Antony Obwari

Because perfect equality cannot exist even in civil situations where all people, nominally, equally pay tax, class and social differences will always be a perennial feature of human society. It however finds reflection in several other places, including marriage and intimate relationships. Wechuli, a farmer and party activist, is a passionate womanizer, so in him all these feuds find reflection. His wife Marcella comes to discover one of these illicit affairs. She is so disturbed it affects her personality and propels her, unwittingly, to leadership. The feud in the domestic setting and between Marcella and the woman her husband cheats with find parallels in politics and social strata. Both have to learn to navigate these at the same time as they try to save their marriage. Against this backdrop are various blossoming young loves also struggling against the chocking decadence of moral rot and corruption. When Marcella, through her local church, becomes a leader too, she is the better one. The community soon recognizes her potential. The story therefore suggests that letting go of old hurt is itself a step towards healing, and while differences in society will never be perfectly resolved the individual has within himself the will and capacity to redeem himself.
