An Orchestra of Minorities
by Chigozie Obioma
Full disclosure, I tried reading this when it was first published and quickly decided I wasn’t in the right mindset. I’m ecstatic that I put it down, and that I picked it back up.
In a modern retelling of The Odyssey we follow Chinonso or Nonso, a young poultry farmer in Nigeria who falls madly in love with Ndali, a woman he stops from attempting suicide very early in the book. Not to give too much away but Nonso goes to great lengths for Ndali and through this and his (at times) angelic naïveté we are brought through the plot of this book.
Shortlisted for the Booker Shortlist I think this is what I’m rooting for.
