    A dark and lyrical collection of short stories from the author of the critically acclaimed Speak Gigantular and Butterfly Fish, whose unique voice has been praised by writers like Ben Okri and Stella Duffy.

    'Okojie is a dazzlingly wild, bold and imaginative writer who tells stories with captivating originality and intense drama' Bernardine Evaristo



    'Dazzling . . . A feast for the senses' Diana Evans



    Winner of the AKO Cain Prize

    ____________



    In this collection of short stories, offbeat characters are caught up in extraordinary situations that test the boundaries of reality . . .



    A love-hungry goddess of the sea arrives on an island inhabited by eunuchs.



    A girl from Martinique moonlights as a Grace Jones impersonator.



    Dimension-hopping monks sworn to silence must face a bloody reckoning.



    And a homeless man goes right back, to the very beginning, through a gap in time.



    Nudibranch is a dark and seductive foray into the surreal.

    STELLA DUFFY
