E.C. Osondu is a man with a clear head and a great ear, writing from crucial places. Jonathan Franzen, author of Freedom and The CorrectionsWith observant wonder and subtle humor, [Osondu] portraysour unique capacity for hope and hopelessness rolled together. Mary Gaitskill, author of Bad Behavior and VeronicaThis collection of vivid, compulsively readable stories marks the debut of Nigerian author E.C. Osondu, winner of the 2009 Caine Prize for African Writing. In the tradition of Wole Soyinka, Nadine Gordimer, J.M. Coetzee, and Chinua Achebe (all patrons of the Caine Prize), Osondus stories are wise, soul-stirring, and deeply compelling. In electrifying prose, he articulate the struggles of Nigerian immigrants in America, and refugees, villagers, and ex-patriots in Africa. Voice of America marks the beginning for a brave and remarkable new voice in African Literature.
