Blind Horizon

About the Book

Blind Horizon is divided into thirteen chapters, a prologue and an Epilogue. It is a small and compact novel of the trauma of total memory loss, of the power of friendship and the other frontiers of love. It has a subtle political flavour throughout.

Blind horizon successfully highlights in very subtle ways several relevant aberrations of present day Nigeria. Some of the themes enclosed in the manuscript include the fate of fatal accident victims who are generally allowed to die for several reason which include the question of hospitalization fee and dread of legal implications and security complications to the doctors as a consequence of the death. Also, the question of hospitality to strangers, the rights of sickle cell sufferers and the mental anguish of political activism are explored.
