Item description from the seller

Review

‘Osondu succeeds in creating a vivid and fully imagined world that is uniquely his own. It is a wonderful achievement.’ –Petina Gappah, Observer

‘Osondu’s prose style is that of the raconteur. It is direct and unmannered, it is inventive and humorous, but above all it is compelling’ –Helon Habila, Guardian

‘Osondu’s stories cleverly combine narrative understatement, a vigorous prose style and the ability to shock and delight … An outstanding debut’ –Bernardine Evaristo, Financial Times

‘Containing hope and humour along with hardship and heartbreak. It’s easy to see why Jonathan Franzen is a fan’ –Daily Mail

`In deceptively simple narratives, Osondu charts the borderlands where different cultures meet with great skill’
–Sunday Times
