Travelers by Helon Habila
4.0
Reminds me lots of Donal Ryan's From a Low and Quiet Sea. Just as devastating. Also thinking this is what Johnny Pitts's Afropean could have been: feeling the compassion in this, and that reminds me of the disconnect in the other. Liked the middle best.
Watched Helon Habila at AfroLit Fest, and he struck me as very cerebral. Comes through in the book too, I think - very literary in many places.
