Description
A Spell of Good Things by Ayobami Adebayo In Ayobami Adebayo's breathtaking second novel, the lives of two young people become inextricably linked, revealing the deep-seated divisions and shared humanity of a nation. Eniola, a boy struggling to find his place in the world, and Wuraola, a young doctor torn between her privileged upbringing and her own desires, find themselves at the centre of a maelstrom of violence and social change. As the fragile balance of their lives is shattered, Adebayo shines a light on the stark contrasts of Nigeria, where the haves and have-nots are worlds apart. With unflinching insight, she explores the complexities of family, identity, and the search for a better future. With its powerful prose and unflinching portrayal of the human condition, A Spell of Good Things is a novel that will resonate with anyone interested in the complexities of the human experience.
