Britannica CD Index Articles Dictionary Help Tutuola, Amos (b. 1920, Abeokuta, Nigeria), Nigerian author of richly inventive fantasies. He incorporates Yoruba myths and legends into loosely constructed prose epics that improvise on traditional themes found in Yoruba folktales. Perhaps his best known work is the novel The Palm-Wine Drinkard and His Dead Palm-Wine Tapster in the Deads' Town My Life in the Bush of Ghosts (1954) reiterates the quest motif, introduced in The Palm-Wine Drinkard, through the experiences of a boy who, in trying to escape from slave traders, finds himself in the Bush of Ghosts. Another quest is found in Simbi and the Satyr of the Dark Jungle (1955), a more compact tale focusing upon a beautiful and rich young girl who leaves her home and experiences poverty and starvation. In this and other tales The Brave African Huntress The Feather Woman of the Jungle Ajaiyi and His Inherited Poverty (1967), and The Witch-Herbalist of the Remote Town (1981)Tutuola's rich vision imposes unity upon a series of relatively random events. Tutuola was influenced by Daniel Olorunfemi Fagunwa , a Nigerian author who wrote similar folk fantasies earlier in Yoruba. Tutuola was also familiar with

Drawing on the West African Yoruba oral folktale tradition, Tutuola described the odyssey of a devoted palm-wine drinker through a nightmare of fantastic adventure. Since then, The Palm-Wine Drinkard has been translated into more than 15 languages and has come to be regarded as a masterwork of one of Africa's most influential writers. Tutuola's second novel, My Life in the Bush of Ghosts, recounts the fate of mortals who stray into the world of ghosts, the heart of the tropical forest. Here, as every hunter and traveler knows, mortals venture at great peril, and it is here that a small boy is left alone.
