Abstract
This paper discusses multiculturalism in the African novel with emphasis on the Anglophone Cameroon novel. In doing this, I interrogate the idea of a multicultural world as a prescriptivist possibility of Western universalism, and draw inspiration from pre-colonial notions of it in Africa in order to suggest a relative appraisal of the term today. The two novels in focus thus serve as mediating points in the assessment of how and why Africa and Europe (the West in general) can partner less suspiciously. In the end, I also suggest the reinforcement of a more objective reliance on African bioethics in order to negotiate a more organic transition into the challenges of multiculturalism today.
