The book ‘Urhobo Folktales: A Socio-Cultural Analysis,’ boldly sets out to achieve the objectives so well captured in the title – a study of folktales found among the people of Urhoboland in the Niger Delta of Nigeria and indeed it succeeds in capturing the beauty of these stories in a very distinct manner worthy of commendation.
This ground-breaking book is divided into two parts. While the first part is a collection of folktales, the second part is a literary and sociological study of Urhobo folktales. This book therefore becomes a ready source material for anybody who wishes to enjoy the aesthetics of Urhobo folklore, both as raw material and as a literary study.
