Chigozie Obioma
The Road to the Country
“The Road to the Country plunges us into the heart of the Nigerian Civil War between 1967 and 1970. It is a novel of love, fraternity and courage, by the Nigerian author Chigozie Obioma, one of the finest contemporary voices, who blends Nigerian history and myths in his writing.”
