À propos de cet audio
“A masterwork…mesmerizing…We come away troubled, unsettled—and in some subtle way changed.”–The New York Times
"The perfect steamy read for those hot summer nights."–People
A thrilling new novel from the bestselling, award-winning, visionary Akwaeke Emezi
One weekend.
The elite underbelly of a Nigerian city.
A party that goes awry.
A tangled web of sex and lies and corruption that leaves no one unscathed.
Aima and Kalu are a longtime couple who have just split. When Kalu, reeling from the breakup, visits an exclusive sex party hosted by his best friend, Ahmed, he makes a decision that will plunge them all into chaos, brutally and suddenly upending their lives. Ola and Souraya, two Nigerian sex workers visiting from Kuala Lumpur, collide into the scene just as everything goes to hell. Sucked into the city’s corrupt and glittering underworld, they’re all looking for a way out, fueled by a desperate need to escape the dangerous threat that looms over them.

"A gritty yet hypnotic novel about a web of loosely connected friends grappling with hidden desires in Lagos. . . Emezi portrays the African city as a corrupting force—but only because falling from grace is so painfully, exquisitely human."—Minneapolis Star-Tribune
"[H]as the dark twists and pace of a thriller, the ambitious scope of literary fiction, the language of poetry and the yearning of romance…[T]he blend of melodrama, peril and existential angst in Little Rot is shockingly entertaining and beautifully wrought.”—Los Angeles Times
"Step into the dark side of Nigerian high society in this sexy, thrilling novel...the perfect steamy read for those hot summer nights."—People Magazine

Akwaeke.. you have done it again!
Immensely compelling and thought provoking. I love how Akwaeke explores new Lagos and the kinds of chaotic decisions make and lives people live. It’s like they woke up and were like what if everyone chose to make the worst decisions ever. Stunning narrators as well.
