Impeccably researched...brimming with humor and intellect. A necessary read for 2022.

A triumph of a book...charismatic and hugely enjoyable...You'd be doing yourself a disservice if you didn't read this.
Nels Abbey, author of Think Like a White Man
This book should be on the curriculum.
Nikki May, author of Wahala
A brilliant, prescient exploration of a richly complex continent. An antidote for our times.
Irenosen Okojie, author of Nudibranch
Warm, funny, biting and essential reading.
Adam Rutherford, author of How To Argue With A Racist
A necessary book that deserves its place in the canon as essential reading.
Sally Hayden, Irish Times
A vital book that offers us new, complex narratives to view African countries and their relationships to Europe and the Global North. Faloyin's stylish, propulsive prose blends history, memoir and opinion, so that reading him has the impression of being at the knee of a great storyteller.
Jonathan Nunn, editor of Vittles
Incisive, thought-provoking and, above all, beautifully written - effortlessly blends memoir, political analysis and historical nonfiction to create something genuinely compelling and new
