Publisher's Summary
From Booker Prize winner Ben Okri: a deceptively simple modern fable with an ancient origin.
A young man finds himself living among invisible beings who have built a utopia based on one principle: that we must repeat or suffer every experience until we experience it properly and fully for the first time.

A work of pure genius, narrated with eloquence.
Okri takes you on a sublime journey of pure genius, in this multi- layered story. I felt like I was on a magic carpet ride of the soul listening to this. The narration is equally fitting to tone of story and draws you into the captivating atmosphere of this profound novel. Nearly every line is a meditation as only Okri can do. Brilliant piece of work, read beautifully. I would follow this narrator too.
