Seller's Description
Product Information
The
past, if there is such a thing, is mostly empty space, great expanses
of nothing, in which significant persons and events float. Nigeria was
like that for me: mostly forgotten, except for those few things that I
remembered with outsize intensity. Along the streets of Manhattan, a
young Nigerian doctor doing his residency wanders aimlessly. The walks
meet a need for Julius: they are a release from the tightly regulated
mental environment of work, and they give him the opportunity to process
his relationships, his recent breakup with his girlfriend, his present,
his past. Though he is navigating the busy parts of town, the
impression of countless faces does nothing to assuage his feelings of
isolation. But it is not only a physical landscape he covers; Julius
crisscrosses social territory as well, encountering people from
different cultures and classes who will provide insight on his journey -
which takes him to Brussels, to the Nigeria of his youth, and into the
most unrecognizable facets of his own soul. A haunting novel about
national identity, race, liberty, loss, dislocation, and surrender, Teju
Cole's Open City seethes with intelligence. Written in a clear,
rhythmic voice th
at lingers, this book is a mature, profound work by an
important new author who has much to say about our country and our
world.
