Описание: Wole Soyinka Prizewinning author of Everything Good Will Come recasts the international espionage tale by bringing the intrigue and politics of family life to the fore. Lagos, January 1976, six years after the Nigerian Civil War. A new military regime has been in power for six months, but rumors are spreading that a countercoup is imminent. At an art exhibition in the affluent Ikoyi neighborhood, Remi Lawal, a Nigerian woman who runs her own greeting-card shop, meets Frances Cooke, who introduces herself as an American art dealer, in Nigeria to buy rare beads. They become friends and over the next few weeks confide in each other about their aspirations, loyalties, marriage, motherhood--and Nigeria itself, as hospitable Remi welcomes the enigmatic Frances into her world. Remi's husband, Tunde, naturally suspects Frances--like any American in Lagos--of gathering intelligence for the CIA, yet she is unconvinced. Cynical about the country's unending instability, and alienated by the shallowness of the city's elite, she willingly shares her views with Frances. But the February 13 assassination of General Muhammed prompts Remi to reconsider one particular conversation with her new acquaintance in a different light. Her discouragement overcome by a reawakened sense of patriotism, she begins to doubt that the bead collector is who she claims to be. With her signature subtlety and wit, Sefi Atta examines a brief but profound friendship, and one Nigerian mother's yearning--amid legacies of conflict and uncertainty--to help build her country from home. Sefi Atta is also author of Everything Good Will Come (Myriad, 2019).

Описание: Introducing an important new voice in contemporary fiction, `Everything Good Will Come` is set in Sefi Atta`s Nigerian-born homeland. It is 1971, a year after the Biafran War, and two African girls become friends - one born of privilege and the other, a lower class `half-caste`; one who is prepared to manipulate the traditional system while the other attempts to defy it. Written in the voice of one of these girls, the novel traces the unusual friendship into adult life, against the backdrop of tragedy, family strife, and a war-torn country. A wise and universal story of love, friendship, prejudice, survival, politics, and the cost of divided loyalties.

"This is contemporary family drama at its best: jam-packed with complex characters of largely middle class backgrounds; terse, witty dialogues that demonstrate Atta's skills at portraying genders and generations with widely differing aspirations; sibling rivalries, conjugal dynamics and meddling extended families; best friends and bad neighbors; and a whole plethora of religious practices and ethical mores which affect business ventures, professional conduct, and personal relations. This and much more you will find in Atta's Selected Plays- a drama collection which offers thought-provoking entertainment for theatre lovers." - Christine Matzke, University of Bayreuth
