Résumé

In Lenrie Peters' debut novel, The Second Round, a young physician decides to settle down in Freetown at the turn of Sierra Leone's independence.

After years of studying in England, a young Dr Kawa decides to return to his childhood home. Optimistic for his future and that of the country's, Kawa is eager to carve out a new life for himself in an independent nation. But when he falls unexpectedly in love with his neighbour's wife, Kawa's hope for a simple life comes crashing down...

The Second Round is a compelling story of the unimaginable change wrought by British colonialism, from altered cultures and values to the everyday disillusionment its victims faced.
