    ”Hvis ingen ser dig, er du der så alligevel?”En øm og følsom fortælling om at miste et barn, man aldrig rigtig har kendt, om kroppens betydning og mangel på samme, om at finde sit sande selv i kærlighedens navn.Vivek Ojis mor finder sin søns døde krop uden for sin hoveddør, og dermed tvinges hun ud på en rejse, hvor hun lærer det barn at kende, som hun aldrig rigtig forstod.”Han var lille dengang, levende. Kavita kunne lade håndfladen falde, og så ville den lande på hans lille rundede baghoved, på det bløde hår og den varme hud nedenunder, den kuppelformede knogle, som formede ham. Mange år senere, da hun fandt hele hans legeme udstrakt på deres veranda, under fire meter akwete-stof i røde og sorte tern, erklærede hun, at hun aldrig ville glemme, at bagsiden af hans kranium var revnet og sivet ned i dørmåtten. Kavita løftede alligevel hans nakke for at presse sin kind mod hans og skrige. Hans hår faldt ud over hendes arme, vådt og langt og tykt, og hun jamrede.”Røg direkte ind på New York Times bestsellerliste ved udgivelsen i USA.

    Nigeriansk-tamilske Akwaeke Emezis funklende, intense, kraftfulde og modige debut.En halvbiografisk bildungsroman, der trodser genrer og antagelser lige så let, som den forstyrrer vestlige idéer om identitet, spiritualitet og køn.Jeg har levet mange liv indeni denne krop.Jeg levede mange liv, før de anbragte mig i denne krop.Jeg vil leve mange liv, når de tager mig ud af den.Ada er svaret på sin katolske fars bøn, men hun fødes som barn af Igbo-guden Ala. Hun er med andre ord en ọgbanje, dvs. en ånd, som fødes ind i en menneskekrop, en slags ondsindet spilopmager, hvis målsætning er at pine menneskemoren ved en uventet død, blot for at vende tilbage i det næste barn og starte forfra.Fra det øjeblik Ada kommer til verden, er hendes bevidsthed uadskilleligt forbundet med stærke kosmiske kræfter, der eksisterede længe før, hun blev født. Hendes sind fyldes af vrangvillige brødresøstre, som tager deres menneskelige legetøj under både kærlig og ondskabsfuld behandling i fortællingen om hendes liv. Men langsomt formår også Ada at manifestere sig som en uigenkaldelig sammensmeltning af de mange forskellige og divergerende udgaver af selvet, hun rummer."Emezis debut er det seneste fremtrædende eksempel på den nigerianske romans spændende opsving ..." Sam Sacks, Wall Street Journal"... bemærkelsesværdig og modig debutroman ..." Tariro Mzezewa, New York Times"En funklende, barsk roman ..." Susan Straight, LA Times" ... en udsøgt debutroman ..." Lucy Scholes, White Review"En livsnødvendig og uforglemmelig debut ..." Jonathan Thornton, Fantasy Hive
