With his first published work, The Palm-Wine Drinkard (1952), Tutuola became the first Nigerian writer to achieve international recognition. This adaptation of Yoruban folktales into nonstandard English represents one of the first works of its kind, and Tutuola is credited with founding a uniquely African literary form. Influencing critical reception of The Palm-Wine Drinkard was the early appearance of a laudatory review by Dylan Thomas, and the ensuing critical attention gave Tutuola's work a cultlike status in the Western world. Nigerian critics, however, were skeptical of Tutuola's skill and complained that his work was both ungrammatical and unoriginal, being unduly similar to the work of D. O. Fagunwa, a Yoruban chronicler of tales in the vernacular. Tutuola's next five works, all derived from oral tales and written in English, received comparatively less attention but established him as a consistently skillful storyteller. After his fifth work, Ajaiyi and His Inherited Poverty (1967), Tutuola did not publish until the recent appearance of

Born in Abeokuta, Tutuola was denied a full schooling by the death of his father, and worked variously as a blacksmith, messenger, farmer, and storekeeper. Tutuola's books, written in an uneducated and idiosyncratic English, engage readers vividly in the world of Yoruba myth and legend. Imaginative journeys involving encounters with the supernatural—ghosts, demons, and magic—are essentially a means to spiritual growth and the acquisition of wisdom. Tutuola's ability to mine the rich seams of the Yoruba oral tradition and to rework and modernize the folklore to his own ends made his work unique. His later works include
