Akwaeke Emezi: DEATH OF VIVEK OJI W3

by Emezi, Akwaeke

ISBN: 9780571350988

Published: 2020-08-20

This is the tale of Vivek Oji. It begins with his end, his naked body shrouded on his mother's doorstep, and moves backwards through time to unpick the story of his life and the mystery surrounding his death. As compulsively readable as it is tender and potent, this is a fresh, engaging novel about the innocence of youth and how it clashes with culture and expectation. The Death of Vivek Oji is the story of a Nigerian childhood quite different from those we have been told before, as Emezi's writing speaks to the truth of realities other than those that have already been seen. 'Emezi's surreal prose shines . . . extraordinary.' Ayobami Adebayo, on Freshwater
