"Bude" describes the interactions of two different cultures and religions not only separated by the ocean but also by distance.
Polar, a character in "Bude" depicts the culture and the religion of the Igodo people prior to an external cultural and religious influences while Bude the main character of the book depicts the transformation process of the culture and religion of the same Igodo people during the external cultural and religious interactions.
"Bude" shows that the original culture and religion of a people are dependent on the peoples’ environment and experience and should not be judged by others but respected. The Igodo people were aware that their culture and religion were under attack in the name of education and religion but their desire for education without the necessary funding made them vulnerable to the external cultural and religious influences. The book concluded that a more financially stable culture and religion will dominate others after interactions.
"Bude" is original and the contents are actual events of the nineteenth and the twentieth centuries’ colonization of an ancient nation and it is based on actual people and places with the names changed. Daniel Iyeks, the author of this book was an observer at the time and he was also a part of that transformation.
It is memorable because "Bude" depicts how most of the world was colonized by the western powers without the use of any weapons and that the approach could be applied in most of the world volatile places today.
