Title: Season of Crimson Blossoms Author: Abubakar Adam Ibrahim Narrator: Hassana Maina Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 20 minutes Release date: August 24, 2021 Genres: Contemporary Women Publisher's Summary: From one of Nigeria’s most exciting and distinctive new storytellers comes a debut novel that is already making waves across the African continent.An illicit affair between 55-year-old widow Binta Zubairu and 25-year-old weed dealer and political thug Hassan 'Reza' was bound to provoke condemnation in conservative Northern Nigeria. Brought together in startling circumstances, Binta and Reza discover a need that only each can satisfy in the other. Binta, a grandmother of five, yearns for intimacy after the sexual repression of her marriage, the pain of losing her first son and the privations of widowhood. Meanwhile, Reza seeks to lessen the pain of estrangement from his mother, and the increasingly remote link to his father, by seeking solace in an unconventional emotional and physical relationship. Through Binta, we follow the intimate daily life of a Muslim Hausa family—where life revolves around domestic disputes and divorces, friendship and whispers, and religious instruction at the madrasa. By contrast, Reza is the selfpronounced Lord of San Siro, an urban cesspit that is home to a gang of misfits, outcasts and thugs. The situation comes to a head when these two worlds collide, with disastrous consequences. This story of love and longing—set against undercurrents of political violence—unfurls gently, revealing layers of emotion that defy age, class and religion.

Their aristocratic bloodlines are woven into the very fabric of Washington—generation after generation.

These parents and their children live in gilded existences of power and privilege. But what they have failed to understand is that the world is changing. And when the family of one of their own is held hostage and brutally murdered, everything about their legacy is called into question in this unputdownable novel that “combines social satire with moral outrage to offer a masterfully crafted, absorbing read that can simply entertain on one level and provoke reasoned discourse on another” (Booklist, starred review).
