"Worth reading for its searing depiction of modern Africa...."
Kirkus, 11/01/2003
Review:"This book works brilliantly in two ways. As a convincing and unpatronizing record of life in a poor Nigerian slum, and as a frighteningly honest insight into a world skewed by casual violence, it's wonderful."
Sophie Harrison, New York Times Book Review, 02/22/2004

Book Description: St Martin's Press, United States, 2005. Paperback. Book Condition: New. 210 x 137 mm. Brand New Book with Free Worldwide Delivery. "A richly detailed, poignant, and utterly fascinating look into another culture and how it is cross-pollinated by our own. It brings to mind the work of Ha Jin in its power and revelation of the new."--T. Coraghessan Boyle The sprawling, swampy, cacophonous city of Lagos, Nigeria, provides the backdrop to the story of Elvis, a teenage Elvis impersonator hoping to make his way out of the ghetto. Nuanced, lyrical, and pitch perfect, this is a remarkable story of a son and his father, and an examination of postcolonial Nigeria, where the trappings of American culture reign supreme.
