WHO FEARS DEATH.
New York: DAW Books, Inc., [2010]. Octavo, boards. First edition. The author's first adult novel and winner of the World Fantasy Award for best novel 2011. Also winner of the Carl Brandon Kindred Award "for outstanding work of speculative fiction dealing with race and ethnicity." Set in a post-apocalyptic future in the Sudan. "To compare author Nnedi Okorafor to the late Octavia E. Butler would be easy to do, but this simple comparison should not detract from Okorafor’s unique storytelling gift. Who Fears Death is a post-apocalyptic parable that teaches lessons on how ignorance, apathy, and prejudice can kill, but how truth and knowledge are the keys to life." - Zetta Brown, The New York Journal of Books (online). Base of spine slightly bruised, a fine copy in a fine dust jacket with a touch of shelf wear. (27589). Item #27589
