The FishermenVerdict: carrot

“The Fishermen”, a notable debut by Nigerian novelist Chingozie Obioma, multiphases the unsettling threads of a dark childhood to process the mistakes of history. Obioma registers touches of genius in this critically acclaimed debut and stakes his claim among the masters of African literature – no mean feat at the age of 28. Although he has already been called the heir of Chinua Achebe, Obioma’s mastery of the questions of the day and rich blend of influences uploads into the African canon a mythic feat uniquely his own.
