Nigerian-British Crime fiction writer, Leye Adenle, is set to launch ‘The Beautiful Side of the Moon’, a speculative fiction novel, in London.

The event is scheduled to hold at London Review Bookshop on April 4.

The synopsis of the book on the author’s website reads: “What would happen if God forgot who he was? Drawing on age-old African story-telling traditions, modern science-fiction and contemporary thriller writing, ‘The Beautiful Side of the Moon’ conjures up an entirely new way of seeing the world. The central character, Osaterin, thinks he is just a modest IT guy living in Lagos, but it turns out he is much, much more than that…

A delightful, playful, thoughtful adventure in speculative fiction by one of Nigeria’s most exciting new writers.”

Adenle is author of the Amaka series, ‘Easy Motion Tourist’ and ‘When Trouble Sleeps’.
