Since we don't have Edward Said's exact list of 6 best African novels, it's difficult to be precise. But if we consider the breadth and depth of African literature, novels like 'The Beautyful Ones Are Not Yet Born' by Ayi Kwei Armah which is a searing critique of post - colonial Ghana. 'Season of Migration to the North' by Tayeb Salih which challenges Western perceptions of Africa and African - Arab relations. There are many other works that could potentially be on his list, but without his statement, we can't be certain.
I'm sorry I can't provide the exact 6 best African novels as per Edward Said. But some well - known African novels that might be contenders are 'Half of a Yellow Sun' by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie. This novel beautifully portrays the Biafran War in Nigeria. 'Purple Hibiscus' by the same author is also a remarkable work that explores family, religion, and abuse within an African context. There are many other great works from African authors, but without knowing Said's specific choices, we can only guess.
The Volturi could be the villains again. Since they were so concerned about Renesmee, they might be even more worried about a new half - vampire - half - human baby. They could see it as a threat to their power and their rules about vampires and hybrids.
As I haven't read it, it could be the unknown. Maybe there are strange creatures specific to South Africa that are really terrifying. Like the Tokoloshe, a mischievous and often malevolent spirit in South African folklore.
Given the title, the plot could be quite complex. It might be that there are eight signs or omens that are being watched in the story. In South Africa, there could be cultural or traditional beliefs associated with these signs. As the story unfolds, the characters realize that these signs are precursors to a great horror. They could be facing a malevolent force that is related to South African history or mythology. The characters then have to figure out how to break the cycle or escape the impending doom that the eight signs are foretelling.
One challenge is bullying. Some students might not be accepting of their bisexuality and could bully them verbally or socially isolate them. This can have a negative impact on their mental health and academic performance.
Based on the title, it could be religious fiction. Since it mentions 'God', it might deal with religious ideas and stories in a fictional way.
It might include a spontaneous decision by Bella and Edward to elope to Vegas. There could be scenes of them finding a cheesy yet charming Vegas chapel, with Elvis - like officiants. And of course, the reactions of their friends and family back in Forks when they find out about the sudden marriage.
There's also a possibility that a third party, like Bella, would step in and mediate. She would help them see each other's points of view and find a compromise. After all, Bella has a special connection to both of them and could use that to defuse the situation.
Perhaps they are characters in a modern - day wizarding world where they are both part of a secret magic society. Edward could be a powerful wizard from an old family who feels threatened by Harry's new - found powers. So, he decides to break Harry's heart to assert his dominance.
