The Cabals and the Naked Dance: ( short stories )

By Mnguember Vicky Sylvester

It has been tough times of evolving democracy in Nigeria. The people that wallow through these tough times characterize the literature of the time and those we encounter in The Cabals and the Naked Dance, a collection of fifteen stories that capture the day to day lives of people. Infrastructure and underdevelopment is captured in Scrap, corruption in Spare Parts from the Morgue and Prayer Warriors, the craze for babies in marriage in Pilot Light. Nigerians are travelers often in search for education, medical tourism, and their laughable encounters with foreigners is captured in Dreams and Stars. The long-talked-about cabals, who are said to run government big wigs and the country's resources, is shown here as an attitude of all Nigerians in all walks of life, including children.
