Chronicles From the Land of the Happiest People on Earth

A towering figure in world literature, in his first novel for 48 years Wole Soyinka aims directly at the corridors of power as he tells a story of corruption- both in high office & within the soul- with a dazzling lightness of touch & gleeful irreverance.

Chronicles From the Land of the Happiest People on Earth is at once a savagely witty whodunit, a scathing inditement of Nigeria’s political elite, & a provocative call to arms from one of the country’s most relentless political activists .
