Okey Ndibe's critically-acclaimed debut novel, Arrows of Rain is a vital exploration into the importance of speaking truth to power even when no one is listening.
In the country of Madia, the General has declared himself Life-President of the Republic. According to him, ninety-nine percent of Madians voted for it.
On the day of his ascendency, however, a young sex worker is found dead on a beach. The last man who spoke to her, the 'madman' Bukuru, is adamant he saw her being attacked by Madian soldiers. His claim quickly lands him in prison, forced to defend himself against the charge of the woman's murder.
Armed only with the truth, he must set upon the perilous scheme of releasing his story to the world.
A brave and powerful work of fiction, Arrows of Rain continues to resonate as a cautionary tale against corruption and oppression.
'Highly evocative.' Wole Soyinka
'The greatest villain in Okey Ndibe's Arrows of Rain is silence.' Vanity Fair
'A Kafkaesque, imaginative novel of great necessity and power.' Kirkus Reviews
