BOOKER PRIZE NOMINEE A NEW YORKER AND NPR BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR GMA BUZZ PICK A dazzling story of modern Nigeria and two families caught in the riptides of wealth, power, romantic obsession, and political corruption from the celebrated author of Stay with Me, "in the lineage of great works by Chinua Achebe and Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie" (The New York Times).
Eniola is tall for his age, a boy who looks like a man. Because his father has lost his job, Eniola spends his days running errands for the local tailor, collecting newspapers, begging when he must, dreaming of a big future.
Wuraola is a golden girl, the perfect child of a wealthy family. Now an exhausted young doctor in her first year of practice, she is beloved by Kunle, the volatile son of an ascendant politician.
When a local politician takes an interest in Eniola and sudden violence shatters a family party, Wuraola''s and Eniolas lives become intertwined. In her breathtaking second novel, Ayọ`bámi Adébáyọ` shines her light on Nigeria, on the gaping divide between the haves and the have-nots, and the shared humanity that lives in between.
