Hope from distant lands is a fiction about western influence on African culture and peoples. Africans were, ab initio, suspicious of the white mans presence in their midst, afraid that his mission and methods could seriously undermine their much cherished beliefs, customs and traditions regarded as sacrosanct. But when they could no longer act in concert against the white mans unwelcome influence on their cultural identity and pride, their collective resistance petered away. In this three part novel, the hero olisakwe, is the arrowhead of Western inroads into his home area. In part 1, his (specifically Igbo) cultural environment subjects him to a series of excruciating experiences that highlight the obnoxious aspects of his peoples traditions. He is subsequently flung out of Igboland into slavery.
