Summary

Inspired by environmental activism, Tiger Work blends fiction, essay and poetry to make a powerful and very personal appeal for change.

If we continue to live as we do now, Ben Okri argues in this evocative collection, there will be no world left for us to fix. He imagines messages, sent to us from beyond the end, from those who saw it coming—from Africa, Europe, the Americas and the rest of the world—exhorting us to change now.

This is a collection comprising two poems and six prose pieces—three short stories, an essay, a letter, and an interview. It has Ben's classic blend of storytelling, fantasy and magic.
