Description: The Folk Tales of Nso are fictional stories told by fathers to their children on weekends after evening meals. They served as entertainment in the absence of television and provided a forum for interaction with and socialization of offspring by their parents. They were verbally handed down through generations by repetition to maintain their originality. Such originality was maintained on documentation. This revised edition stays original but includes more sketches which bring more life and color to the stories. The tales demonstrate possibilities and impossibilities in the interactions between animate and inanimate objects. It is important for Nso elites to read this book to help preserve parts of their culture. Other cultural groups curious to learn the rich culture of a proud African people can also peruse these fascinating stories.
