Tremor

Resumen del libro

The new novel from the author of the celebrated Open City-a powerful and masterful exploration of what makes a meaningful life in a world of violence and wonder. Tunde, the man at the centre of this novel, reflects on the places and times of his life, from his West African upbringing to his current work as a teacher of photography on a renowned New England campus. He is a reader, a listener, and a traveller drawn to many different kinds of stories: from history and the epic; of friends, family, and strangers; those found in books and films. One man's personal lens refracts entire worlds, and back again.
