Tiger Work

Ben Okri (author)

This earth that we love is in grave danger because of us. Forests are becoming legends, rare as unicorns...

If we continue to live as we do now, there will be no world left for us to fix, Booker Prize-winner Ben Okri argues in this evocative collection. He imagines messages - sent to us from beyond the end, from those who saw it coming - exhorting us to change now.

Combining fiction, essay and poetry, Tiger Work displays Okri's classic blend of storytelling, fantasy and magic.

Ben Okri was born in Minna, Nigeria. His childhood was divided between Nigeria, where he saw first-hand the consequences of war, and London. He has won many awards over the years, including the Booker Prize for Fiction, and is also an acclaimed essayist, playwright, and poet. In 2019 Astonishing the Gods was named as one of the BBC's '100 Novels That Shaped Our World'.
