A vivid, mesmerising story about modern Lagos<\/b>\u2014<\/b>and the darkness that swirls beneath it.<\/b><\/p>\n

All across the city, pregnant women are walking into water …<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Twenty-three-year-old Yosoye arrives in Lagos ready to start her life. Working for a slick architectural firm, she finds a city of adventure and opportunity. Her new world is one of fancy gallery openings, glamorous friends, and all the shiny potential of the future, encapsulated in projects like Omi City, the brand-new housing development her company is building.<\/span><\/p>\n

But Yosoye’s idyllic vision of Lagos soon begins to seem na\u00efve, and its darker, stranger layers trouble her. Something is not right about Omi City, but no-one will give her satisfactory answers. And then, after a chance encounter in her first weeks in Lagos, Yosoye realizes that she is pregnant…<\/span><\/p>\n

A vibrant and atmospheric evocation of modern Lagos, the promises of progress and the mysterious lure of the abyss, <\/span>One Leg on Earth<\/span><\/i>\u00a0is a haunting and arresting story from an unmissable new voice in literature.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
