The Waiting - Martin Egblewogbe - Bog

A largely allegorical exploration of the loneliness of the rootless, The Waiting radiates from metropolitan Ghana to encompass the world. The second book of Martin Egblewogbe, whose hilarious The Gonjon Pin lent its title to the 2014 Caine Prize anthology, it sparkles with local myth while paying homage to Kafka, often with hilarious outcomes.
