"In 1954 a number of Nigerian students accused Tutuola of pandering to European stereotypes, and argued that his ungrammatical sentence structures and narratives rooted in African myths and legends were giving Europeans a chance to 'confirm their concepts of Africa'. Thomas has also of course been accused of playing the stage Welshman; from Pennar Davies's description of him as a gifted entertainer', to Katie Gramich's more recent argument that Thomas is our "our clichéd bard.""
