Description
Brilliant and ambitious Kepu was born and raised in Okpoko, a rural community where family ties are so important that babies' umbilical cords are buried at the foot of cash crop trees to ensure that they always remember their roots. Kepu's ambition leads him to America, a land of promise, where he becomes a different person. Will Kepu remember Okpoko? Or will he become part of the lost generation?
