The magnificent new coming-of-age novel by Dr Nat Tanoh that shines a light on what it's really like growing up in Africa. The Day of the Orphan tells the story of what unfolds when a chubby kid from a charmed background becomes the reluctant revolutionary his country so desperately needs. Can one happy-go-lucky schoolboy really stand up to a murderous regime? How long can he stay one step ahead of the Zombie soldiers that will do anything to stop him?
Childhoods can be snatched in an instant…especially when you live in a dictatorship.
President-For-Life-Until-Further-Notice Field Marshal Brewman knows he cannot hold on to power for much longer. Stirring up a civil war against the Muslims in the north certainly bought him a bit more time, but now too many mothers are demanding to know why they must lose their husbands and sons to a cause they don't believe in. Having built a nation on fear, he, himself is terrified. He has a whole army of personal bodyguards and military police are everywhere, keeping civilians afraid. But when he demands boys are conscripted, the schools and the youngsters turn against him.
A boy named Saga becomes an unlikely revolutionary when he commits the serious crime of speaking up against the regime. It starts at a low-level - a club of school boys with grand ideas - but as the political situation ramps up, the school kids have to get their acts together and fast; they are wanted men now after all.
This powerful and emotive story touches on so many themes that are sadly a reality for many African nations – from human rights abuses to corrupt dictators – Dr Nat manages to both make you laugh and seriously consider the current state of affairs in African.
