Prayer for the Living. Ben Okri

Аннотация:

Ben Okri—a native of Nigeria and London resident—won the Man Booker for his 1991 novel, The Famished Road. Okri became a bona fide superstar in the UK (the Radiohead hit «Street Spirit» was inspired by The Famished Road ), especially after the follow up to The Famished Road—Songs of Enchantment— continued to receive rave reviews. Okri as an essential voice in the African and African Diaspora literary community, as well as a daring NEW voice of protest in the brave new world of Trumpism, Brexit, climate-change deniers, and autocracy in general. Prayer for the Living was recently published in the UK and received glowing reviews in Mail on Sunday, Belfast Telegraph, the New Statesman, etc.
