Item description from the seller

A young lady’s illness and death are attributed to diabolism as her family ignores medical diagnosis… A youth corper posted to a rural community adapts to his environment by resorting to his basest instincts. A village’s tribal divisions come to a head quite tragically against the backdrop of an illicit affair… The personal dilemma of poverty and hopelessness among young Boko Haram recruits… A village is thrown into confusion as its most virile bachelor dies in suspicious circumstances, and a futuristic tale on how baseless ideologies hijack government policies.

This collection of short stories gives a stark narration of forgotten parts of modern society and speaks to the oral nature of how Nigerian stories are told. Paul Ugbede’s ability for storytelling has been celebrated in plays with over ten productions that have sold out audiences. In this, his first collection of short stories, he has mirrored society in a real and telling way.

This collection of stories is fresh, riveting, and dynamic, with evocative language that brings aspects of our traditional beliefs. myths and settings to life. Ughede’s great strength is the artful blend of contemporary issues with tradition and his ability to inform and entertain.
