A literary tour de force set in war-torn Africa. from the best-selling, award-winning author of ‘Evening’.

The long-awaited novel from the bestselling, award-winning author of ‘Evening’ is a literary tour de force set in war-torn Africa.

Michela Wrong brilliantly reveals the contradictions and comedy, past and present, of Eritrea.
