The Wish of a Goat and Other Plays is a collection of three short, but humorous, comedies, namely, The Wish of a Goat , Dominik , and To His Great Surprise . In The Wish of a Goat , a young man, Desmond, is obviously obsessed with his not having a girlfriend, as do all his friends. And when what he considers an opportunity comes up – his meeting with Chesh, a girl – he is determined to do all the best he can. But Chesh is uncooperative, making all his efforts seem like water being poured on a stone. Find out how it happens. In Dominik , Dominik, a young worker at a company, resigns his employment with the company on the basis that he needs to rest, only for him to find out, later on, that rest is sweet only after work. And now, he wants to return to his job. But will his job be returned to him? You will find out. And, then, in To His Great Surprise , Mr. Rice, an Englishman, is on a tour to an African rural community. But his actions, and even inactions, are a surprise to the people of the community, and especially to Udokamma, a man from the community, whom he hires to teach him the language of the people. Find out how it all happens.
