Reid Miles In-house Designer at Blue Note Records from 1955 to 1967. Using a combination of minimal abstract forms and intense colour associated with Bauhaus, cover designs are closely related to Color Field and Minimalist artists such as Ellsworth Kelly.
Ngugi’s ability to weave a complex narrative, which connects crime and racial tensions in the US to an in-depth knowledge of Kenya and its nuances, to Rwanda and its genocide past within this African crime thriller, is nothing but the work of a genius craftsman and wordsmith. It is hard to find any faults with Ngugi’s debut novel. His pen promises us more intriguing stories. This is one book you will not put down until you reach the end because it is that superb a story.
