A bold new novel that augments a body of work worthy of a Nobel Prize
(Kirkus Reviews), from the internationally acclaimed author of
Crossbones Nuruddin Farah the most important African novelist to
emerge in the past twenty-five years (The New York Review of Books)
returns with a provocative, unforgettable tale about family, freedom,
and loyalty. A departure in theme and setting, Hiding in Plain Sight is a
profound exploration of the tensions between liberty and obligation,
the ways in which gender and sexual orientation define us, and the
unintended consequences of the secrets we keep. When Bella, a
fashion photographer living in Rome, learns of her beloved half-brother s
murder, she travels to Nairobi to care for her niece and nephew. But
when their mother resurfaces, reasserting her maternal rights and
bringing with her a gale of chaos and confusion that mirrors the
deepening political instability in the region, Bella must decide how far
she will go to obey the call of sisterly responsibility."
