Voice of America

E.C. Osondu is a fearless and passionate new writer whose stories echo the joys and struggles of a cruel, beautiful world. His characters burst from the page?they fight, beg, love, grieve, but ultimately they are dreamers. Set in Nigeria and the United States, Voice of America moves from the fears and dreams of boys and girls in villages and refugee camps to the disillusionment and confusion of young married couples living in America, and then back to bustling Lagos.Written with exhilarating energy and warmth, the stories of Voice of America are full of humor, pathos, and wisdom?an electrifying debut from a winner of the Caine Prize for African Writing.
