Title: Images of Africa Title Record # 1665623
Author: Naomi Mitchison
Date: 1980-05-00
Type: COLLECTION
Language: English
Synopsis: The setting of the stories moves from villages and their accompanying legends to more urban and modern places. During this the magic gets less and less central (even the protagonists have their doubts about its existence), but it still lingers up to the last story. The Coming of the New God seems to be the turning point of the collection: the new God being the one and only God of Christianity. In this light it seems also possible to read the stories as a sort of chronology.
