Description
Dangerous Love by Ben Okri is a compelling novel set in 1980s Lagos, Nigeria, that follows Omovo, a young painter navigating the dangers and hardships of urban life. Amid political unrest, poverty, and social decay, Omovo discovers the transformative power of art while pursuing a forbidden love with a married woman. The city itself—vibrant, chaotic, and oppressive—shapes his experiences, testing his courage, morality, and imagination. Blending realism with lyrical, symbolic prose, the novel explores themes of creativity, desire, and survival, portraying love and art as acts of rebellion and resilience in a society fraught with danger.
