A Genius Performance by Adjoa Andoh!
Winner of the Orange Broadband Prize for Fiction 2007.
This wonderful fiction occurs in Nigeria at the time of a vicious civil war in which a million people died and thousands were massacred in cold blood.
The three main characters in the novel are swept up in the violence during these terrible years.
As these people's lives intersect, they have to question their own responses to the unfolding political events. The novel deals with all aspects of social change, from the intimate to the colonial.
A must for anyone intersted in things African.
