Description:
What is V.S. Naipaul were a happy man?... What if Vladimir Nabokov had grown up in a small town in Western Nigeria and decided that politics were not unworthy of him?... Aké locates the lost child in all of us, underneath language, inside sound and smell, wide-eyed, brave and flummoxed. What Waugh made fun of and Proust felt bad about, Mr Soyinka celebrates.
