An Orchestra of Minorities

by Chigozie Obioma

In 'An Orchestra of Minorities', Chigozie Obioma crafts a heart-rending odyssey through the life of Chinonso, a humble Nigerian poultry farmer. His ordinary existence takes a fateful turn when he prevents Ndali, a woman intent on suicide, from jumping off a bridge. As romance blossoms between the two, Chinonso's love is tested by cultural divisions and the harsh realities of socioeconomic disparities. Driven to prove his worth, he sacrifices his livelihood to pursue an education abroad, only to be deceived and left destitute. Narrated by his guardian spirit, this is a tale of impassioned love, unwavering ambition, and the punishing trials of fate, set against a backdrop rich in Igbo mythology and cultural heritage.
