Tunde, the man at the centre of this novel, reflects on the places and times of his life, from his West African upbringing to his current work as a teacher of photography on a renowned New England campus.
A weekend spent shopping for antiques is shadowed by the colonial atrocities that occurred on that land. A walk at dusk is interrupted by casual racism. A loving marriage is riven by mysterious tensions. And a remarkable cascade of voices speaks out from a pulsing metropolis. One man's personal lens refracts entire worlds, and back again.
Tremor is a startling work of realism and invention that examines the passage of time and how we mark it. This is storytelling with all its senses alert — from a beacon of contemporary literature.
