This is a simple story of traditional village life written by Buchi Emecheta, one of Nigeria's leading novelists.
The children born during the Nigerian Civil War have grown up and have formed a troublesome group with a grudge against society. They won't work on the farm and they take no notice of their elders. The elders decide to teach them a lesson in a very subtle way.
Before they know what's happening, the boys find themselves locked in a conflict with other boys and with each other—not with the elders. The story culminates in a great wrestling match. Who wins? They soon learn that in war, nobody wins.
