This book examines the practical application of linguistic and creative tools in Chika Unigwe's On Black Sisters' Street and Night Dancer. The study relies significantly on the notion of stylistics, with its creative and linguistic nuances, to enhance a more holistic understanding and appreciation of the select novels. Based on linguistic evidence, the novels reveal the physical and psychic effects of the postcolonial realities on the post-colonial subjects. The descriptive system of textual analysis adopted in this book shows that the artistic values of the novels are illuminated primarily through the language and creative techniques employed by the author (Unigwe) in the novels. Unigwe's creative manipulation of languages in the select texts shows that most African, and Nigerian writers, in particular, have eventually arrived at a linguistic compromise between the target and the indigenous languages as well as pidgin. This does not just reflect her dexterousness as a storyteller with exciting linguistic, stylistic, and structural awareness but indeed, the nature of Nigeria as a dense linguistic ecology.
