The Rainmaker and the Blacksmith (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798375230818)

The rainmaker and blacksmith are actors of sorts, and Warru is a theatre that finds both the rainmaker and blacksmith performing their art of rainmaking and blacksmithing. The village's theatre depicts more the unseemly characters of the two artisans than a real theatre would. The palm wine tapper, only a minor actor in the drama, stands by watching the play of manners and action between the rainmaker and blacksmith building to a tragedy, now and then stepping in to provide comic relief; ultimately rescuing the village from a tragedy neither the rainmaker nor blacksmith could.
