Paradise: By the winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature 2021
- Used Book in Good Condition
A finalist for the 1994 Booker Prize, Englandâ‚¬s highest honor for works of fiction, Paradise is at once the story of an African boyâ‚¬s coming of age, a tragic love story, and a tale of the corruption of African tradition by European colonialism.
Sold by his father in repayment of a debt, twelve-year-old Yusuf is thrown from his simple rural life into the complexities of precolonial urban East Africa. Through Yusufâ‚¬s eyes, Gurnah depicts communities at war, trading safaris gone awry, and the universal trials of adolescence. The result is a page-turning saga that offers a unique perspective on a seldom-chronicled part of the world.
