The storystates that being disabled does not equate to stagnation and underdevelopment but a surmountablechallenge that refines the individual for the better.

Condizione: Hervorragend. Zustand: Hervorragend | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | Veiled Currents is an enchanting tale of reinvention, strength and weakness, gain and loss, pollution, climate change, oil exploration and exploitation, environmental struggle, globalisation, and a touch of fate, narrated in a style uncommon in debut novels. Veiled Currents tells the story of a people living in poverty amidst wealth and whose lives have been defined negatively and punctuated with psychological scars by the effects of oil exploration and exploitation in the oil-rich region of Delhara. Tode, the major character in the novel, and some youths of the three affected oil-producing communities (Okan, Kalama and Ajimele) engage in an armed struggle against the military government and multinational oil corporations responsible for the devastation. "Veiled Currents is a novel of profound relevance, addressing themes that resonate deeply with contemporary socio-political and environmental discourses. Its topicality elevates it to the status of a significant and essential read, offering insight and engagement that transcend its pages. For students of literature, the novel presents a rich tapestry of narrative techniques and thematic explorations, making it a valuable resource for academic inquiry and critical analysis. Equally, for book enthusiasts and discerning readers, Veiled Currents stands as a compelling and enriching addition to any literary collection, promising a blend of intellectual stimulation and artistic satisfaction." - Ogaga Okuyade (PhD), Professor of Post-Colonial Literature, popular culture and new media, Dean Faculty of Arts, Niger Delta State University Wilberforce Island, Bayelsa, Nigeria.…
