Blackass : a novel

A.Igoni Barrett

"Furo Wariboko wakes on the morning of a job interview to discover he's turned into a white man: red hair, green eyes, pale skin. In this condition he plunges into the bustle of Lagos to make his fortune. Pursued from the streets to the boardroom by those who would use him, Furo hides the evidence of his former life ... as he reinvents himself. In this wicked satire, Furo's search for an identity deeper than his skin leads to the unraveling of his own precariously constructed story"--Page 4 of cover. - Als op de ochtend voor een sollicitatiegesprek de 33-jarige in Lagos geboren en getogen Furo Wariboko ontwaakt als een blanke man, ontdekt hij hoe mensen niet verder kijken dan je huid wanneer ze je beoordelen.
