Index of Correspondents Biographical Sketch Amos Tutuola was born in 1920 in Abeokuta, Nigeria. He first entered his home village school at the age of twelve and in 1934 he entered the Lagos High School, under the sponsorship of a family friend. Trouble with the people he lived with sent Tutuola back to school in Abeokuta in 1936 and the death of his father in 1939 forced Tutuola to end his formal education. He returned to Lagos to learn blacksmithing and in 1942 he joined the R.A.F. as a blacksmith. Despite a somewhat abbreviated formal education, Tutuola originally wrote all of his novels in English. The success of his stories prompted him to translate a number of his works into his native language, Yoruba. While working as a messenger for the Department of Labor, Tutuola wrote the first draft of The Palm-Wine Drinkard , a romance built out of elements of Yoruba folklore. Published by Faber and Faber in London in 1952

If you would like to write a profile for this page, please fill in the Amos Tutuola profile form / formulaire de profil Profile 1 (reproduced with permission) Email: orders@africabookcentre.com Tutuola has published two collections of short stories, a volume of Yoruba folktales, and nine folkloric narratives, of which The Palm-wine Drinkard, a kind of quest tale that incorporates traditional Yoruba folk material, is the best known. In each he has repeated the structure and style of the first, sometimes even reintroducing whole episodes and characters from earlier narratives in later ones. Despite similarities in plot, structure, style, and theme, the later texts do indicate Tutuola's recourse to religion and mythology as new sources (such as John Bunyan's The Pilgrim's Progress, The Arabian Nights, and Edith Hamilton's Mythology). Occasional startlingly out-of-place words in them also testify to his use of dictionaries as quarries for new vocabulary. Simbi and the Satyr of the Dark Jungle (1955) and The Brave African Huntress (1958), Tutuola's third and fourth books, do depart somewhat from the general pattern, specifically in the choice of women as the principals. Indeed, it is to Tutuola's credit that unlike most highly educated male African writers of his generation he needed no urging from feminist activism before placing women at centre stage in his fiction. Adebisi, the brave huntress, is the more formidable of the two heroines. Having inherited her father's hunting profession along with all his powerful charms, she sets out to rescue her four older brothers, who had disappeared on a hunting trip into the fearful Jungle of the Pigmies. She emerges from the jungle after surviving the familiar string of perils, not only with her brothers, but also with thousands of other captives, as well as a large quantity of precious metals that made her 'at once' a very rich lady.

31. Tutuola amos tutuola ( 19201997). Nigeria. amos tutuola was one of the more controversial figures in African literature http://www.uflib.ufl.edu/cm/africana/tutuola.htm

Library Catalog Amos Tutuola (1920-1997). Nigeria. His second book, The Palm Wine Drinkard (1952), was saved from obscurity by Dylan Thomas, who wrote a good review of it six weeks after its publication. He described the book as a "brief, thronged, grisly and bewildering story, or series of stories, written in young English, by a West African, about the journey of an expert and devoted palm wine drinkard through a nightmare of indescribable adventures, all simply and carefully described in the spirit-bristling bush." Unsurprisingly, his work has not been greeted entirely favorably by educated Nigerians, who dislike his crude writing style and poor English. Similarly, many feel that the material promotes Western stereotypes of African backwardness. These concerns are not unfounded: Anthony West has called Tutuola's work "a glimpse of the very beginning of literature" and Selden Rodman has described him as "a true primitive." Tutuola himself is undaunted by such criticism, and many of his admirers describe his novels in much more sophisticated terms. Harold Collins, for example, claims that Tutuola is "West Africa's first classic in world literature." Despite the criticism his work has received for its grammatical shortcomings and untraditional plot development, Tutuola is undoubtedly a vibrant and evocative storyteller. (KJ) The Palm Wine Drinkard.
