There is without a doubt something “right on” in #tadunossong by #odafeatogun . If you like #dystopia with #magicalrealism echoes, you will enjoy this quick read for sure. Personally I was left wanting more. #atoguncomes close to touch that specific moment when everyone becomes an active participant in feeding and supporting that same dehumanizing system which enslaves us. In my opinion, he just doesn’t dig deep enough. I felt I was reading some Saramago lines here and there. However I was expecting #taduno to “bewitch” the reader and get us all in trouble. Having said this, I still think I’d #recommend this book and perhaps there might be other angles which I failed to see. #debutnovel#nigerianliterature #pantheon#pantheonbooks #lagos #return#lossofmemory#lookingfortheimpossible#protestsong #forgotten#popularsinger #socialcritique
