What is Barua Ndefu Kama Hii about?

Ramatoulaye, mwanamke Msenegali ameolewa na Mody, mtu mzito serikalini. Baada ya miaka mingi ya ndoa Modu anaoa mke mwingine, msichana mdogo mwenye umri sawa na wa binti yake. Ramatolaye anasahauliwa; pesa na mapenzi vinahamia kwa mke mdogo. Modu anakufa katika ajali ya gari. Nani atakayerithi mali za marehemu? Halafu kuna umati uliokuja kwenye kilio ambao “lazima ulishwe na upewe pesa kwa heshima ya marehemu”. Mariana Ba, mwandishi wa riwaya hii, alikuwa wa kwanza kupewa tuzo ya Noma mwaka 1980.

Une si longue lettre is a classic of the African canon, winning the first Noma Award for Publishing in Africa in 1980, and translated into 17 other languages.
