Uwem Akpan's stunning stories humanize theperils of poverty and
violence so piercingly that few readers will feel they've ever
encountered Africa so immediately. The eight-year-old narrator of
"An Ex-Mas Feast" needs only enough money to buy books and pay
feesin order to attend school. Even when his twelve-year-old sister
takes to the streets to raise these meager funds, his dream can't
be granted. Food comes first. His family lives in a street shanty
in Nairobi, Kenya, but their way of both loving and taking
advantage of each other strikes a universal chord.
