Blending unvarnished realism with myth and fantasy, Vagabonds! traces characters for whom life itself is a form of resistance: a driver for a debauched politician; a fashion designer who gives birth to a grown daughter; a lesbian couple; a wife and mother trying to escape from her violent husband. As their lives intertwine -- in bustling markets and underground clubs, churches and hotel rooms -- they are seized and challenged by spirits who command the city's dark energy. Whether running from danger, meeting with secret lovers, finding their identities, or vanquishing their demons, these characters confront and support one another, before converging one night for the once-in-a-lifetime gathering at the book's conclusion"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Marginality, Social $z Nigeria $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Sexual minorities $z Nigeria $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Tramps $z Nigeria $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Nigeria $x Social life and customs $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Magic realist fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Gay fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Novels. $2 lcgft 941 $a 17 952 $l ALPE516 $d 20240417015943.0 952 $l SFPH074 $d 20240314023603.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20240305042910.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20231010030155.0 952 $l CMPE792 $d 20230629015030.0 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20230328010712.0 952 $l VXPE964 $d 20221202021159.0 952 $l BJPD251 $d 20221008010735.0 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20220804024732.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20220630014235.0 952 $l RZPE145 $d 20220630012702.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20220507010237.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20220429010344.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20220414010430.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20220405014010.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20220401030225.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20220322010135.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=64830A9EA9A511ECADE8123B38ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
