After existing orally for hundreds of years, Sunjata was written down in the 20th century. David Conrad, who recorded a new version of the epic, has now crafted a prose translation that preserves the oral flavour of live performance. The result is a captivating work of literature that will finally give the story of Sunjata its well-deserved place among the great epics of world literature. -- Martin Puchner, Byron & Anita Wien Professor of Drama & of English & Comparative Literature, Harvard University
