Description

This dazzling debut collection explores the ties that bind people to one another and to their places of origin. Lesley Nneka Arimah's stories weave together themes of family, identity, and belonging in unexpected ways.

In "What It Means When a Man Falls from the Sky", Arimah reveals the complex web of relationships between parents and children, husbands and wives, lovers and friends, and the places they call home.

From the devastating consequences of desperation to the unsettling repercussions of scientific discovery, Arimah's stories are both subversive and profoundly human. This is a remarkable talent on the rise, heralding a career that promises much.
