Science has given us several explanations for how humans evolved
from walking on four limbs to two feet. None, however, is as
riveting as what master storyteller Ngugi wa Thiong'o offers in The
Upright Revolution. Blending myth and folklore with an acute
insight into the human psyche and politics, Wa Thiong'o conjures up
a fantastic fable about how and why humans began to walk upright.
It is a story that will appeal to children and adults alike,
containing a clear and important message: "Life is connected."
Originally written in Gikuyu, this short story has been translated
into sixty-three languages--forty-seven of them African--making it
the most translated story in the history of African literature.
This new collector's edition of The Upright Revolution is richly
illustrated in full color with Sunandini Banerjee's marvellous
digital collages, which open up new vistas of imagination and add
unique dimensions to the story.
