Paradise is at once a story of a young boy's coming of age, the story of a continent on the verge of corruption by European colonialism, the story of African Islam meeting the rich pantheism of interior Africa, and a tragic love story. Paradise is a page-turning saga that covers the same territory as the novels of Isak Denisen and William Boyd, but from a perspective never before available.
