Abstract
ABSTRACT This essay considers the significance of camwood, a West-African tree, in the work of a Nigerian American writer, Femi Euba. By reviewing the symbolic association of the vegetal trope, the essay explores camwood as a hermeneutical tool to reflect upon Black fate and Black identities in the Atlantic world.
