Tiger Work

An artist's ardent plea for change * Kirkus *
Approaches the potential cataclysm of climate change from many perspectives in this multi-genre collection, which is both a work of lyrical imagination and a warning about the dangers we will face unless we take immediate action. * New Yorker *
PRAISE FOR BEN OKRI: 'Ben Okri is that rare thing, a literary and social visionary, a writer for whom all three – literature, culture and vision – are profoundly interwoven' Ali Smith. 'Where fiction's master of enchantments stares down a real horror, and without blinking or flinching, produces a work of beauty, grace and uncommon power' Marlon James on The Freedom Artist. 'Okri's rhythmic, folk tale-like prose is beguiling.' Sunday Times on The Freedom Artist. 'Okri's otherworldly literary approach has produced masterpieces.' Independent on Sunday. 'Okri's writing has a light-as-air elegance, yet its seriousness keeps the stories gravity-bound.' * New Statesman on The Magic Lamp *
