Right.
Well, this is the perfect time to get your zigzag account.
But I just just one more thing I want to say about the book.
It's basically a look about the overall book is about the dangers of ignoring deep economic divides that run through community and how difficult life is.
And these difficult choices families have to make in Nigeria to kind of survive.
Like, do you pay rent or school fees or and and so it's.
It does say a lot around politics and kind of the murky side of politics and corruption and those sorts of things.
So it's a good, like, if I want to get a good Nigerian family saga for your beach read, if you enjoyed, for example, Age of Vice by Deepti Kapoor, you will like this book.
Yeah, I can imagine also it helps you with the characterisation and particularly if you had someone like Sebastian Barry that, you know, really giving it, you know, that's fantastic.
A hundred percent.
Yeah.
This is the book to take with you.
Well, there are many brilliant books that are available to us online.
set in Nigeria we're very lucky if you're interested in Nigerian literature English I know in America it's the same there's lots but this is one of many I think you could really enjoy and not only does it talk about the food and the culture and but it also is like lots of you know musical references just things I just don't know because I'm you know I'm not Nigerian and so it makes you want to kind of find out a bit more and I think if you were there although it's a fictitious city you definitely recognize lots and you definitely get probably even more from the book
What other books has he done?
Brilliant.
Hi, it's Nicky.
Is he Sir Stephen Fry?
No.
It was just Steve.
