Item description from seller

Octavo; 167 pages; VG/VG; white spine with black lettering; dust jacket protected in a mylar covering, price clipped; light foxing to dust jacket and top edge of textblock; minor shelfwear; pages clean; shelved Below Front Counter. "Ferdinand Léopold Oyono (14 September 1929 - 10 June 2010) was a diplomat, politician and author from Cameroon. His literary work is recognised for a sense of irony that reveals how easily people can be fooled. Writing in French in the 1950s, Oyono had only a brief literary career, but his anti-colonialist novels are considered classics of 20th century African literature; his first novel, Une vie de boy-published in 1956 and later translated as Houseboy-is considered particularly important." (Wikipedia). 1364094. Shelved Dupont Bookstore. First English Language Edition, First Printing.
