About this audiobook
Better Never Than Late charts the unconventional lives and love affairs of a
group of Nigerian migrants, making their way in Belgium. The collection is centred
around Prosperous and her husband Agu, and the various visitors who gather at
their apartment each week. These interconnected stories explore their struggles
and triumphs, from unhappy marriages (of convenience or otherwise), to the pain
of homesickness, and the tragic paradox in longing to leave Nigeria so that you
may one day return to it.
