For Sarah’s family, memories of early Sixties Aba in south-eastern Nigeria are scorched onto their hearts. In twenty closely linked stories, Bush Meat explores an expatriate family’s two-year stay in 1960’s Nigeria then moves on to explore its effect on all their lives over the next fifty years. Exploring themes of substitution, racism, and whether the spirit can ever survive transaction.
'Bush Meat is a sensitive, haunting collection that sets personal stories against a background of historical change. It is thoughtful and perceptive. And a real joy to read.' – Suzy Ceulan Hughes
