A Big Elephant Has Been Killed: a novel

This book exceeded my expectations. The author covers many stories - love story, story about freedom and democracy in a newly established African nation, story about friends growing up over the years, and a story about life and death. One learns a lot about life that transcends all of these stories. I look forward to his next book.

A Big Elephant Has Been Killed: a novel This is a thought provoking novel: A Big Elephant Has Been Killed by Yaw O. Agyeman! A gripping & moving novel by all standards! I just couldn't put the book down. A must read for anyone looking for a relaxing, intellectual and insightful novel.

Agyeman's ability to write realistic characters with very different perspectives on the same situation really makes this book come to life. The book evolves as you learn more about each characters background and you begin to understand each one's motivation for their part in the desperate undertaking the embark on. The book informs as well as entertians, leaving the reader enriched in many ways.
