Re: Guess The Author Or The Book by LarrySun(m): 3:38pm On Oct 26, 2012 |
Crack this: AUTHOR 1. He's American 2. A Guinness Book of World Record Breaker 3. His novels have outsold those of Stephen King, John Grisham and Dan Brown combined NOVEL 1. A thriller 2. Eighty percent of the book contains Nigerian settings 3. Professor Wole Soyinka was discussed therein 4. The Redeemed Church of Christ, Third Mainland Bridge were mentioned 5. Names like Adanne, Uchenna, Nkiru, Abidemi Sowande are fictitiously used. 6. Adaptation of the novel: T'agba ba nde, a a ye ogun ja. As one approaches an elder's status, one ceases to indulge in battles. GOODLUCK TO YOU. |

Frederick forsythe is the only american i know who featured nigerian settings in his books. Is he even american- i'm actually not sure. |

Re: Guess The Author Or The Book by kay9(m): 4:42am On Oct 27, 2012 |
Mmm... I'm stumped. Tears of the Sun is a movie, and not an adaptation either... |

Wait a minute... No no, can't be, Seun's not american... 1 Like |

kay9: Wait a minute... Wow! No one has been able to break this? You guys have a few hours left to tell me the book title. The book's a great one. I have a hardcover copy of it, and it's for sale at an auction price. |
Re: Guess The Author Or The Book by tpia5: 4:27am On Oct 28, 2012 |

tpia@:AUTHOR'S NAME: JAMES PATTERSON BOOK'S TITLE! CROSS COUNTRY |
Re: Guess The Author Or The Book by vescucci(m): 9:20am On Oct 28, 2012 |
^^^ I know a lotta Patterson books but I dunno that one. Never heard of it. What's he in the Guinness book for though? tpia@: Silas Marner by George Eliot? |

Re: Guess The Author Or The Book by Nobody: 12:23pm On Oct 28, 2012 |
well, you guys are impressive o. Here goes: ...his first bestselling autobiography was set in Ireland, the second one in america. He grew up in such poverty that he almost lost his sight from poor nutrition, was a high school teacher all his working life. P.S. the first autobiography is my best ever book, and it was made into a movie, one that I didn't especially care for. |
Re: Guess The Author Or The Book by LarrySun(m): 1:29pm On Oct 28, 2012 |
BoboYekini: well, you guys are impressive o. Here goes:James Herriot. |
Re: Guess The Author Or The Book by kay9(m): 2:01pm On Oct 28, 2012 |
kay9: Wait a minute... Ishilove: What? The yeye riddle was beginning to look like a trick question. If Seun had even a one-percent claim to American lineage, i'd have shouted ''NAIRALAND'' as the answer... Dey dia na. [/quote] Larry-Sun: Mmm. Nawa o. So Patterson has a book set in Nigeria? Interesting... Ok, so i looked up the wikipedia summary of the book, lol, mehn i almost passed out laughing. Look, no offence meant, aiit? But seriously, these writers might wana visit places they wana write about before actually doing the writing. I mean, didnt ANYBODY bother to tell Mr. Patterson that WHITE men are above the law in Nigeria?? The idea of some semi-illiterate mopol officers actually arresting a white guy on some trumped up charges, and actually beating him up in the cell is so so ludicrous! Mmofo beat up a WHITE MAN?? Chineke!! The rest of us don die finish be dat na, lmao!! 1 Like |
Re: Guess The Author Or The Book by sino(m): 2:16pm On Oct 28, 2012 |
@kay, LMAO, you can say that again, i guess the dude just went online and typed nigeria, saw some "normal" stuff about police brutality and lawlessness and think yap, i got it! Not knowing that naija mopol go even they shine him teeth anyhow, salute and turn him bodyguard sake of say him dey talk with oyinbo man lol |
Re: Guess The Author Or The Book by vescucci(m): 2:45pm On Oct 28, 2012 |
BoboYekini: well, you guys are impressive o. Here goes: Wow. You shoulda included he won a Pulitzer. This book was given to me by someone I was in love with at the time so I was bound to love it. But then after reading it, I was completely blown away. There's no humour like Irish humour. The book is definitely Angela's Ashes by Frank McCourt. I'm so stoked that someone else loves this book as much as I. |
Re: Guess The Author Or The Book by vescucci(m): 2:48pm On Oct 28, 2012 |
kay9: LOOOOOOOOl. But his readers won't know anything. Funny, I was thinking yesterday while walking home from a satisfying meal if Ludlum has actually visited all the cities he writes about or he just bullshits us. Cuz I'm always trying to be accurate with my writing. I'll be relieved if it's all bullshit. |
Re: Guess The Author Or The Book by tpia5: 10:39pm On Oct 28, 2012 |
vescucci: Yes, its silas marner. |
Re: Guess The Author Or The Book by tpia5: 10:41pm On Oct 28, 2012 |
BoboYekini: well, you guys are impressive o. Here goes: angela's ashes. Great book. |
Re: Guess The Author Or The Book by Nobody: 11:26pm On Oct 28, 2012 |
yes, tis Frank McCourt's Angela's Ashes. I don't know that there's any other book that can have such profound effect on me. RIP Frankie. |
