Associate Professor of French Joseph Mwantuali is the author of a novel about African politics titled Impair de la nation (Publisher: Les Editons Cle, Yaounde, Cameroon, October, 2007) L'Impair de la nation literally means the "The nation's odd number." But, according to Mwantuali, "L'impair" also connotes lexically the opposite of "Le Pere de la nation," as African dictators like to call themselves. L'Impair de la nation is Mwantuali's third book.
The novel denounces endless dictatorship in Africa, but it also describes the socio-economic action of African women, the unsung heroes, and creates a fictitious African government designed by them, after they have overthrown a cruel dictator.
