Blackass

In this bold and provocative reinvention of Kafka, Furo Wariboko awakens as a white man in Lagos, with only his buttocks unchanged. As he navigates a world that now rewards his appearance, the novel delivers a razor-sharp satire of race, class, and the performative absurdity of identity in a post-colonial society.

Description

Furo Wariboko – born and bred in Lagos – wakes up on the morning of his job interview to discover he has turned into a white man. As he hits the city streets running, still reeling from his new-found condition, Furo is amazed to find the dead ends of his life wondrously open out before him.

As a white man in Nigeria, the world is seemingly his oyster – except for one thing: despite his radical transformation, his ass remains robustly black…

Funny, fierce, inventive and daringly provocative – this is a very modern satire, with a sting in the tail.
