Offer Description

Bambulu’s School Days by Alfred B. Cudjoe is a heartfelt and humorous memoir of a young Ghanaian schoolboy navigating life, loss, and learning in a changing world. Originally serialized in The Mirror—Ghana’s most beloved weekly—the novel captures the resilience of youth against a backdrop of broken family dynamics, bullying, and academic pressures in the 1970s Senior Secondary School system.
Paul, affectionately known as Bambulu, struggles with the aftermath of his parents’ separation and a harsh upbringing with a stepmother. But fortune turns when he reunites with his mother and secures admission to secondary school. Life at school isn’t easy—strange teachers, harsh seniors, and unexpected lessons shape Bambulu’s story into one of grit, growth, and reconciliation.
