Reviews
Bukola Akinyemi
Workmen living in crumbling overcrowded barracks with their families and mischievous twin boys left to fend for themselves. This is one book you can go into blind and be pleasantly surprised.
It’s a story about class and the extend people go to cross the class divide. Small room, big house.
