Well written book with vivid imagery that takes place in a politically unstable post independence Ghana.

some of the imagery here was kinda nasty but it worked. at points it was over my head but overall I really liked it

Interesting book, but I just could not continue reading the font. Too much ink, blurry letters, eyes hurting (African Writers Series edition).

Very slow - difficult to stay focused (some really interesting sentences, though).
