Houseboy / Ferdinand Oyono ; translated from the French by John Reed.
Cameroonian houseboy Toundi dreams of advancement and so studies the world of his white masters closely. "Gradually his eyes are opened to its realities, and in the end this leads to tragic consequences because the Europeans cannot endure the gaze of the man they have destroyed."--P. [4] of cover.
