I racconti di Ben Okri, vincitore del Booker Prize, mescolano diversi piani di realtà, sempre in bilico fra oscurità e magia. Storie irriverenti, incredibili, a volte divertenti altre sconvolgenti, ambientate a Londra, a Bisanzio, nel ghetto, sulle Ande, e in altri luoghi noti ma misteriosi, con protagonisti diversi che abbracciano una molteplicità di personaggi umani, e non solo. Ben Okri si dimostra un autore all’apice della sua potenza espressiva, che padroneggia sapientemente il mezzo del racconto per far ridere il lettore, per farlo pensare, per fargli ribaltare completamente il punto di vista su ciò che lo circonda.
