What We Say: Cousins Akorfa and Selasi are childhood best friends in Ghana before they become estranged. This novel charts their parallel lives via two very different perspectives: first told by the restrained Akorfa, followed by Selasi’s more emotive voice. The result is an immersive, gripping story of family ties, trauma and power.
What They Say: “A formidable exploration of friendship and the intricacies of the relationships that shape us... Touching, bold and thought-provoking, this story is one everyone should read” – Onyi Nwabineli
