Set in Nigeria and America, Voice of America moves from boys and
girls in villages and refugee camps, to the disillusionment and
confusion of young married couples living in America, and then back
to bustling Lagos. These are stories of two countries and of the
frayed bonds that connect them. In 'Waiting', two young refugees
make their way through another day, fighting for meals and hoping
for a miracle that will carry them out of the camp; in 'A Simple
Case' the boyfriend of a prostitute gets rounded up by the local
police and must charm his fellow prisoners for protection and
survival; and in 'Miracle Baby' the trials of pregnancy and
mother-in-laws are laid bare in a woman's return to her homeland.
Written with exhilarating energy and warmth, the stories of Voice
of America are full of humour, pathos and wisdom, and mark the
debut of an immensely talented new voice.
