Hardback. Condition: Very Good. Something is haunting the pregnant women of Lagos. Across the city, they are walking into water . . . and drowning. Twenty-three-year-old Yosoye arrives in Lagos ready to start her life. Working for a slick architectural firm, she finds a city of adventure and opportunity.

Something is not right about Omi City, and as construction speeds ahead, stories of strange deaths in the city?s open waters reach a fever pitch.

A masterwork by a writer hailed as ?an astonishing talent? (Lauren Groff), One Leg on Earth is an ambitious novel like no other: a coming-of-age story, an uncanny exploration of motherhood, and a chilling vision of the dark side of progress.…
