But slowly it clears, and there appears the figure of a man. When Kunle's younger brother disappears as his country explodes in civil war, Kunle must set out on an impossible rescue mission behind enemy lines. Set in Nigeria in the late 1960s, The Road to the Country is the epic story of a shy, bookish student haunted by long-held guilt and shame who must go to war to free himself. Kunle's search for his brother becomes a journey of atonement that will see Kunle conscripted into the breakaway Biafran army and forced to fight a war he hardly understands"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Brothers $v Fiction. $9 80655 650 0 $a Armies $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Redemption $v Fiction. $9 92262 650 0 $a College students $v Fiction. $9 86668 651 0 $a Nigeria $x History $y Civil War, 1967-1970 $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 lcgft $9 83459 655 7 $a Bildungsromans. $2 lcgft $9 83687 655 7 $a War fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Novels. $2 lcgft $9 200624 941 $a 1 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20240604014119.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=8E8EEFE0223B11EF96E545AA58ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
