Description
This novel follows Tunde Akinola, the son of Nigerian immigrants, as he navigates the complexities of identity and belonging in America. From his childhood in Utah to his experiences at a renowned HBCU, Tunde grapples with the expectations placed upon him and the search for his true self. The narrative is a poignant exploration of memory, manhood, and the immigrant experience, questioning what it means to find home when one's roots are divided. Folarin's prose offers a profound meditation on self-discovery in a world often defined by external categories.
