Femi Kayode

from My Life In Books with Red Szell · host Accessible Media Inc.

Join writer, broadcaster and blind adventurer Red Széll for the latest episode of AMI-audio’s My Life in Books. Each fortnight, Red invites you to join him in conversation with a renowned author about their work and the books that inspired them to write. Femi Kayode’s debut novel, Lightseekers, introduced the world to Philip Taiwo, a U.S.-trained forensic psychologist investigating crime and corruption in Nigeria. It became an international bestseller and its sequel has been eagerly anticipated. Gaslight certainly doesn’t disappoint. Like Lightseekers, it’s a tense thriller inspired by real events, this time revolving around a Nigerian megachurch with a global reach. By turns hard-hitting and emotionally sensitive, the book not only probes the underbelly of Nigerian society but also explores wider questions of faith and identity. Join Femi and Red as they discuss the corruption of power and the portrayal of diversity in fiction.
