Where To Purchase Vintage Nigerian Novels?
« on: December 13, 2006, 07:57 AM »

I'm a sucker for Nigerian "trash" novels a la Rainbows are for Lovers and co. I live in the US, and was wondering if anyone knows a thing or two about purchasing them here. I reeeally like them old (as in 1970s and 80s). I have been to the pacesetters site and have purchased some books, but I wonder if there are ways that I could get books by other publishers. I don't care if they're used or new.

Any tips?

Thanks.

Try www.lovetospam.com.ng if u are looking for the likes of Man from Sagamu by Ada Ulasi or Somolu Blues by Omare Boyo and some other 1970-1980 books,

If you have any to sell, buzz me, i am trying to build a personal collection.
