Book excerpt: "Disun Falodun and his bosom friend--Ige -- are young boys growing up within the squeeze and squalor of Makoko. As they sit on the banks of the Lagos Lagoon, they contemplate life on the other side of town--the exclusive district of the Metropolis covering Ikoyi, Victoria Island, and, Broad Street--that mysterious area, so distant, yet so close. Disun is the optimistic of the duo, resolute in his faith in a fair chance at success in Lagos, his ordinary background notwithstanding. Ige, on the other hand -- held by a vibrant, radical mind-- reasoning that the expectation of a fair chance was utopian, entrenches himself in the firm belief that the only reliable choices open to them were illicit. Both set out on a life journey, after making a silent bet as to which of their opposed doctrines is superior."--Author's website.
