The impresario Farini introduced Em-Pee and his troupe to his kind of show business, and now they must earn their bread. In 1885 in a bustling New York City, they are the performers who know the true Zulu dances, while all around them fraudsters perform silly jigs. Reports on the Anglo-Zulu War portrayed King Cetshwayo as infamous, and audiences in London and New York flock to see his kin. What the gawking spectators don't know is that Em-Pee once carried nothing but his spear and shield, when he had to flee his king. But amid the city's squalid vaudeville acts appears a vision that leaves Em-Pee breathless: in a cage in Madison Square Park is Acol, a Dinka princess on display. For Em-Pee, it is love at first sight, though Acol is not free to love anyone back. 650 0 $a South African fiction (English) $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85125503 650 0 $a Performing arts $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Zulu (African people) $v Fiction. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008124335 650 7 $a Performing arts. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01057887 650 7 $a South African fiction (English) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01127180 650 7 $a Zulu (African people) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01184885 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1423787 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1423787 655 7 $a Novels. $2 lcgft $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/genreForms/gf2015026020 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 lcgft $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/genreForms/gf2014026339 941 $a 2 952 $l USUX851 $d 20210406014956.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191211021613.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=482713001BE411EA82BF083097128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
