A powerful, tragicomic novel about power, culture, and identity politics in contemporary America, as seen through the eyes of an African student. Jonah Ayot is a graduate student from a fictional central African nation, studying in a fictional American city some time after the US invasion of Iraq in 2003; the novel mirrors Jonah's own struggle as a newcomer to American life, trying to organize his perceptions around an identity that is global rather than parochial.But those perceptions become muddied in the reality of the new war zone-on American soil, where the foreign becomes familiar, and the familiar is no longer what it used to be.David N. Odhiambo is a novelist, poet, and playwright and the author of two previous novels, "Kipligat's Chance "and "Diss/ed Banded Nation." Born in Nairobi, Kenya, he now resides in Honolulu, Hawaii.
