Bruce Onobrakpeya, Ibiebe ABC III, 2007
This is a collection of short stories, mostly about the interface of Nigerians and the U.S. (two or three are set in Nigeria only), but all are sad-sad-sad... bittersweet, really, for there is sweetness. But it’s often wives learning about husbands’ faithlessness, women being oppressed by men, everyone being oppressed by politics.
Nonetheless, I wished with each story that it would turn into a big long novel ::sigh::
