Literary Fiction
By Imbolo Mbue
Random House
Set in the fictional African village of Kosawa, How Beautiful We Were tells the story of people living in fear amid environmental degradation wrought by an American oil company. The novel is an exploration of what happens when the reckless drive for profit, coupled with the ghost of colonialism, comes up against one community’s determination to hold onto its ancestral land and a young woman’s sacrifice for freedom.
