    This audio-drama is in Pidgin English, widely spoken across Anglophonic West Africa. It centres on a masquerade festival that tells a story about the positive and the negative energies of human kind. Using colour semiotics, it centres on the achromatic scheme of black and white. The story is based on a pre-creation and creation biblical allusion, embedded within an imaginary hybrid African cultural context. It is a fight between Baba God and Oga Devil over who runs the affair of Man Pickin.

    Abbie Kiefer’s debut collection is a clear-eyed portrait of an aging mill town and a larger reflection on memory, making, and the significance of home. What sources of solace and stability remain amid the ruins of industry, after the death of a parent, while raising children in an uncertain time alongside the ghosts of the past? How do we reconcile ourselves to the inevitability of change and protect what remains? A transcendent exploration of breakdown and renewal, of vulnerability and endurance, of personal and communal responses to loss, this book takes up the question of how to find shelter and make one’s way in an altered world.
