Kind of boring and repetitive
Congratulations, Uwem Akpan on the release of your new book, New York My Village!
“Exuberant storytelling full of wry comedy, dark history, and devastating satire—by the celebrated and original author of the #1 New York Times bestseller, Say You‘re One of Them.”

When I sit on my front porch with its black iron railing, I think about my childhood dream of living in Manhattan (the big city for a child born on Long Island) sitting on my tiny fire escape reading and imagining with a melting pot of people passing by below as the noises of the city in the background inspire me.
Do you have a dream place that helps you get away and escape even if you can‘t physically leave home?
