Product details

The story centers on the poor peasant family of Kĩgũũnda and Wangeci, who aspire to improve their social standing through their daughter Gathoni's potential marriage to the son of a wealthy and hypocritical landowner, Ahab Kioi wa Kanoru. The Kiois, however, manipulate the family into mortgaging their land to pay for a Christian wedding, eventually leading to Kĩgũũnda losing his land and job after Gathoni is jilted.

Key Features

Major themes include:

 

-Class struggle and exploitation: The play highlights the deep divisions between the impoverished workers and the rich, who often serve foreign interests.

 

-Neocolonialism and corruption: It serves as a sharp criticism of how African leaders betrayed the aspirations of independence by continuing exploitative economic policies.

 

-Religion and culture: The authors use the conflict between traditional values and the new, often hypocritical, Christian practices to explore cultural imperialism
