In the chaotic world of his African village, the spirit-child Azaro still watches the tumultous and tender lives of the Living; of his father who has been imprisoned for a crime he did not commit and of his mother who battles for justice.
This final chapter in Azaro's adventures is a explosive and haunting climax to this masterful trilogy.
"A deliberate and important piece of writing."
(Times Literary Supplement)
"A novel of paradoxes and impossibilities, conceived poetically and carrying readers along as though on a fast-flowing stream...I admire it hugely."
