Ugwu, a boy from a poor village, works as a houseboy for a university professor. Olanna, a young woman, has abandoned her life
of privilege in Lagos to live with her charismatic new lover, the professor. And Richard, a shy English writer, is in thrall to
Olanna’s enigmatic twin sister. As the horrific Biafran War engulfs them, they are thrown together and pulled apart in ways they
had never imagined.
