dc.description.abstract | Capitalism is a very prominent theme in postcolonial studies, it creates all kinds of hardship in the colonized society; comprises the corruption, betrayal and arbitrary power. Ngugi Wa Thiong‟o‟s A Grain of Wheat is a piece of work that traces the heartache of Kenyans from the widespread corruption of the elite during the British colonization. The main purpose of this dissertation is to highlight the impact of power, corruption, capitalism, and alienation which Kenyans suffer from. Post-colonial theory is the applied method, particularly, it deals with the effects of colonial persecution during post-independence Kenya. Thus, the study is divided into a theoretical frame work discussing the context related to post-colonial Kenya and analytical frame work examines the national betrayal. Hence, the study attempts to expose the trauma suffered by the Gikuyu people. | en_US |
