Chronicles from the Land of the Happiest People on Earth
by Wole Soyinka (2021)
Much to Doctor Menka's horror, a shady but well organised consortium converting body parts to unconventional use is operating out of his hospital. Already at the end of his tether form the horrors he routinely sees in surgery, he shares this latest dvelopment with his oldest college friend, bon viveur, star engineer and Yoruba royal, Duyole Pitan-Payne, who has never before met a puzzle he couldn't solve. Neither realises how close the enemy is, nor how powerful.
