Such A Beautiful Thing To Behold with Umar Turaki
Description
Our first dive into the fascinating world of fantasy fiction had to be with this debut by Umar Turaki. One thing 'Such a Beautiful Thing to behold' did for us is keep us on the edge from start to finish. Set in the beautiful city of Jos, Plateau state, North central Nigeria, you will be immersed in the culture and practices while oscillating between the imaginary village of Pilam. This book is edgy, raw and dark. It is also emotive and offers tangible joys that would hopefully keep you turning its pages.
Our chat with Umar Turaki offers more context and shed light on our many nudging questions about the book. It is exciting to find out about the author’s overall love for literature, storytelling, his vivid unusual imagination and next book project.
