THE STRANGERS OF BRAAMFONTEIN

Have you ever wondered about Nigeria’s youth who flock to South Africa in search of fortune only to be ambushed by torment, even sudden violent death? In this quirky, agile novel, Onyeka Nwelue offers readers a front seat as he dissects the desperation that propels his memorable casts into a maelstrom of drugs, sex, and violence. This is an enchanting anthem to dreams won or surrendered on the streets. –Okey Ndibe, author of Foreign Gods, Inc.
