In this edition of the Book Review, we take a look at the boob The Famished Road. A beautiful work that strings up the magical and the reality. Ben is undoubtedly one of the magical realists of our time.
The story revolves around a major character, Azaro whose circumstances surrounding his birth can spring up arguments and ponderings. He is an ‘Abiku’ who stayed after coming and leaving five times.
He has a very weak tie with the world in which we dwell and has stronger ties with his home which is another world entirely. Ben paints Azaro as a mysterious child and the mystery surrounding his birth and personality is a major factor that aids conveyance of the message of the story.
The Famished Road is a book that seems unimaginable and yet so real
