This stunning U.S. debut from Chika Unigwe won immense acclaim and immediately established its author as a writer to be reckoned with. Lured to Belgium from Lagos by an unscrupulous businessman, Sisi falls into prostitution, her life disintegrating as "Black Sisters Street" saps her every hope. "The author's raw voice, unflinching eye for detail, facility for creating a complex narrative, and affection for her characters make this a must read."-Publishers Weekly, starred review
