A review by extemporalli
Voice of America by E.C. Osondu

4.0

Really good stark debut collection. Osondu's fiction is funny, brash, misanthropist, and... sad. Voice of America is an ironic title as he switches between narratives about Nigerian society and the specific ways that society is harsh and punishing, and Nigerian diaspora in America. Hugely worth a read for those interested in contemporary fiction about Nigeria beyond Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie. Not quite The voice, but certainly a voice of Nigeria.
