Über dieses Buch

"Brutish Baba Pesa, 'The Father of Money', owns 300 acres of prime farm land, yet he covets the meagre plot of his poverty-stricken neighbour, Baru, who barely scratches out an existence. But Baba Pesa is up against his drunken son, Juda, who has taken to lecturing his fellow villagers on the greater values in life"--Back cover.
