Sibling relationships can be fraught with psychological difficulty. Most people unconditionally love their siblings and excuse transgressions that one would not forgive a mere friend. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A highly dysfunctional family where Korede needs to protect her beloved younger sister Ayoola from unthinkable horrors, and this protection becomes the core of her identity. Under the guise of protection, Korede seemingly enables rather than prevents Ayoola\u2019s lethal hobby.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I would recommend this book for someone looking for something different than a happily ever after archetypal hero\/heroine story, that manages to introduce exceedingly heavy topics, whilst keeping the narrative light and readable.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Reviewed by Paula, Student Advisor<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/edgehill.on.worldcat.org\/oclc\/1062354365\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Friday Black &#8211; Nana Kwame Adjei-Brenyah<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Nana Kwame Adjei-Brenyah\u2019s debut short fiction collection, Friday Black, is topical, (and so, with the world being what it is today, disturbing) insightful, funny, tragic, and true. All that in one book \u2013 that\u2019s why Adjei-Brenyah is one of the best contemporary short story writers you can pick up today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many of his stories explore speculative concepts which comment on social phenomenon \u2013 one such concept is at the centre of \u2018Friday Black\u2019, the eponymous story which examines commercial events such as Black Friday and Boxing Day sales. In it, shoppers are depicted as crazed vampiric creatures, who claw and tear at desirable products and store clerks alike. Some do so in the name of greed, others because gifting a rare item with a hefty price tag is the only way they know how to say, \u201cI love you\u201d. \u2018Friday Black\u2019 is a story full of carnage, and it is told by a burnt-out store clerk who is aptly critical of a commercial practice which has lead shoppers and staff alike to be trampled to death without the swarm so much as looking back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Adjei-Brenyah is also a writer who can skilfully weave representations of today\u2019s political landscape with emotive, character-driven moments which reflect it. \u2018The Finkelstein 5\u2019 portrays the disregard for black life that poisons the justice systems of so many nations when a white man walks free after beheading five innocent black schoolchildren with a chainsaw. When protagonist Emmanuel is accused of stealing as a child, he burns the pair of baggy jeans he was wearing whilst his father watches. The scene is full of sadness, as both characters know that this is Emmanuel\u2019s first hard lesson about his identity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you can choose only one writer to pick up next, make sure it is Nana Kwame Adjei-Brenyah. His prose is razor sharp and his insights are also. Next year, Adjei-Brenyah will release his debut novel, Chain-Gang All-Stars, and I for one can\u2019t wait to get hold of it.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Reviewed by Eoin, Student Advisor<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What next?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We hope that you&#8217;ve been inspired by this blog to check out the<a href=\"https:\/\/rl.talis.com\/3\/edgehill\/lists\/488ACD8B-00F0-88B6-0817-DA6C1F5B77CF.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> Black History Month reading list<\/a> and borrow some of the resources on offer!
