Helon Habila

Nigeria

Helon Habila's novel, Oil On Water (Norton, 14.95), is told through the eyes of a 25-year-old rookie reporter, who takes readers deep into the Niger Delta and into the furnace of a brutal war raging between government forces and indigenous rebels.  Fiction blends with the real-life tragedy of one of the world's most overlooked environmental and humanitarian catastrophes.  Habila is the author of Waiting for an Angel and Measuring Time.
