More about the book

Set against the backdrop of New York's publishing industry, a Nigerian editor embarks on a transformative journey filled with both opportunity and harsh realities. While he initially encounters warmth from colleagues, he soon faces a stark contrast of exploitation and prejudice, revealing a ruthless commercial environment. The narrative explores themes of cultural superiority, racism, and the complexities of navigating a new world, all while highlighting the editor's struggle to assert his identity in a landscape rife with assumptions about Africa and its culture.
