The first, short one is titled: "Into a Bad Dream", as Sissie travels to Germany. Our Sister Killjoy is presented in four sections. She recognizes the opportunity, but doesn't overestimate it. The actions and words of others suggest: "that, somehow, going to Europe was altogether more like a dress rehearsal for a journey to paradise". The Europeans are eager to impress (or "make good again") and wine and dine her as soon as they know she is going: as soon as the embassy found out she was the chosen one "they had come to the campus looking for her in a black Mercedes-Benz". She is awarded a scholarship to travel to Europe - a big deal in those times (the late 1960s). Our Sister Killjoy is a novel about a Ghanaian student, Sissie. or Reflections from a Black-Eyed Squintī+ : well-presented novel of an African in Europe.General information | our review | links | about the author Trying to meet all your book preview and review needs.
