A Grain of Wheat

Overview
Considerat capodopera lui Ngugi wa Thiong’o, romanul Un bob de griu urmareste destinele unui grup de sateni chiar inainte de proclamarea independentei Kenyei fata de Imperiul Britanic, in 1963, dupa revolta Mau Mau. In centrul povestii se afla Mugo, un om bintuit de un secret teribil. Personajele care-l inconjoara se afla intr-o strinsa legatura cu momentele importante prin care trece Kenya si, dupa cum o arata numele lor, sint purtatoarele unor simboluri cu o mare incarcatura istorica: batrinul Warui (riul), care face legatura intre marile etape din evolutia poporului; Gikonyo (buricul), in care ceilalti vad cordonul ombilical ce leaga generatiile intre ele, si nevasta sa, Mumbi, numita astfel dupa mama simbolica a poporului gikuyu. Mugo insusi poarta numele unuia dintre cei mai venerati profeti ai comunitatii si este onorat in roman ca mintuitor al poporului sau. Pe masura ce ni se dezvaluie destinele intortocheate ale satenilor, intr-o naratiune in care miturile se impletesc cu trimiteri la personaje istorice reale, sub ochii nostri ia nastere o poveste despre compromisuri inevitabile, prietenii tradate si iubiri puse la incercare.
