In his debut novel, The Only Son, John Munonye sheds a light on how changing cultures under British colonialism inflicted deep personal conflict amongst the everyday people of Igboland. Recently made a widow and single mother to her only child, Chiaku decides to move her family to a small remote village in east-central Nigeria where she hopes to instill in her son the importance of their culture's traditions and, importantly, devotion to the Igbo god Igwe. However, just as Chiaku begins to have hopes of her son's bright future in their religion, a Roman Catholic missionary school opens up in their village. Although wary at first of the school's strange Western ways, Chiaku's son soon finds himself drawn into the teachings of the missionary priests there, sparking a conflict that threatens to split his small family apart...
