An incredibly vivid and imaginative book about a first contact extraterrestrial encounter that takes place in Lagos, Nigeria. Totally fascinating and unlike any other first contact stories I've read or seen. PS don't stop at the acknowledgements--there's a "postchapter" afterwards that's short but worth the read.
