Introduction
frican writers have an enduring propensity for social and politicalcommitment.
Their texts mostly reflect and refract the socio-politicalevents in their
societies. Initially, African literature was a tool for celebrating theheroic
grandeur of the African literature in African nations.That is why African
literature is always chained to the experiences of the people of the continent.
Ayi kwei Armah is not an exception since he represents atypical African writer
completely devoted to his sacred mission as an intellectualand as a writer with
enough gift and experience that allowed him to enrich theliterary African scene
with great works like :
Why Are We So Blessed
,
TwoThousand Seasons
and of course, his most outstandingly admired first novel
TheBeautyful Ones Are Not Yet Born.
Ayi Kewei Armahs
The Beautyful Ones Are Not Yet Born
(1968) is agenerally pessimistic novel describing the aftermath of the birth of
the nationGhana in March 1957 after years of struggle for independence led by
Kwame Nkrumah.This work was in part motivated by the authors disappointment
with the suddencollapse of the socialist democratic ideal.In this paper, an
attempt is to be made to shed light on Armahs novel
TheBeautyful Ones Are Not Yet Born
; and more precisely the all pervasive pessimism that seems to be the most
artistically and psychologically determining inthe writers attitude towards the
social and the political scene of post independentGhana.

By pessimism, we mean the frustrating feeling that most readers go throughwhen
sincerely and inevitably internalizing the scene of pity, hopelessness
andsympathy often associated with another frustrating feeling of belonging to
thesame social and political context. Therefore we shall attempt to limit
ourselves tothe main elements of literary and social analysis. The first element
deals with the pessimistic aspects of Armahs novel, these aspects include the
little, the themes,characterization and the narrative techniques. The second
element will be anattempt to approach the aestheticfeatures of Armahs novel in
order to see how pessimism is aesthetically achieved, these features are the
language, symbolism andimagery and satire. And as we shall see throughthis
research paper, the twoelements combined provide us with an overview of the
pessimistic vision inArmahs novel
.

1-The title :
In the Beautiful Ones Are Not Yet Born
, the title, as an important elementof Ayi Kwei Armahs novel, provides an
intriguing set of artistic and socio- political implications. These implications
acquire more importance when the novelis interpreted in its historical and
social context, and in its literary achievements asone of the most interesting
African novels.The meaning of the little finds its roots in the last three
paragraphs of thelast chapter when the reader witnesses the last of Ayi Kwei
Armahs scenes of disillusionment, failure anddespair. A scene where Ghana is
shown to have missedanother chance of being free, unharmed by the manipulators
of the dirty game of politics, the protagonists of post-independence Ghana :
who were to lead us out of our despair

The tiles words were not even taken but just borrowed from the bus behindwhich
:
the green point was brightenedwith an inscription carefullylettered to form
and oval shape.THE BEAUTYFUL ONESARE NOT YET BORN
2
Borrowed and not even taken because the bus was not to stop there but tocontinue
its cursed trip. Taken as it is with the spelling mistake, the tittle was notto
be ashamed of for the Ghanaian people and more specifically for the person
whowrote it;An example of all those who made out what was going on but had no
realsolution except a comment written behind the bus.
