Accra, Ghana, in the 1970s. In the bustling streets, bustling marketplaces, and crowded houses of this sprawling city, an unforgettable cast of characters live, love, and struggle to survive: an idealistic professor, a beautiful young witch, a wide-eyed student, a corrupt politician, a healer, and a man determined to establish his own village. Through their stories and those of the living, breathing city itself, Kojo Laing's dazzling novel creates a portrait of a place caught between colonialism and freedom, eternity and the present.
The finest novel written in English ever to come out of the African continent, Binyavanga Wainaina.
