A unique and epic novel describing the African Diasporic immigrant
experience conveyed through the protagonist's immersion in American
college life, which leads to his alienation from home. Kwakye covers
substantial bredth of narrative, reminiscent of Ben Okri's The Famished
Road (Vintage, 2009) - from the transformation from youth to
recollections of memories of his birthplace, Ghana, which fade as years
pass - only to be disturbed by the passing of his uncle in a coup
d'etat.
