Inhaltsangabe


WINNER OF THE NEW WELSH WRITING AWARDS 2016.

For Sarah's family, memories of early Sixties Aba in south-eastern Nigeria are scorched onto their hearts. As people of that time and place are scattered like bleached bones, Aba acts as centripetal force on their imagination. In twenty closely linked stories, Bushmeat explores an expatriate family's two year stay in
1960's Nigeria then moves on to explore its effect on all their lives over the next fifty years. Exploring themes of substitution, racism, and whether the spirit can ever survive transaction.
