A review by majasbookishcorner
The Village Witch Doctor and Other Stories by Amos Tutuola
3.0
This short story collection is heavily influenced by Yoruba culture and legends. It features folklore, magical and supernatural elements and is an interesting observation on human behaviour.
Overall I enjoyed some of the the stories, it was interesting to learn about the Yoruba culture, but most of stories were just fine and didn’t particularly stick out. However I have read some great reviews of Tutuola’s previous books, so I will definitely consider picking up more of his work in the future.
