Michael Afenfia's prowess in prose is a living thing - every novel trumps the last. Leave My bones in Saskatoon is a chess game with simultaneous skirmishes in every quarter of the board. The checkmate comes unexpectedly after a brilliant combination. - Emmanuel Frank-Opigo, author of The Song of Our Father
Michael Afenna has written a necessary book, not a strider ne, that has at its core a powerful sense of his character courage and frailty. He charts their journey in sometimes searing detail, ignoring none of the tragedy, betrayals and compromises they encounter in leaving their native Nigeria as well as in adapting to their new country, Canada. This is a novel that has much to say not only to Canadians about people arriving from elsewhere, but also to newcomers and would- be newcomers about the multiple levels of adjustment they must contend with in finding a place for themselves in their new country. - S.E Stewart, Author, Publisher and Award-winning Translator
Another page turner from skilful storyteller Michael Afenfia. A story of wanderlust, suspense and the uncertainty that every immigrant can relate to. A heartfelt tale of the human and emotional impact of migration, Leave My bones in Saskatoon was a riveting read that left me wanting more - Oyindamola Sosanya, Equality, Diversity & Inclusion Advocate and Book Club Host
