Praises For I Will Give My Son a Name
"There is something different
about I Will Give My Son a Name. It is possessive. It is addictive. The
language is crisp and fresh. And in the writer, you can find Haruki Murakami,
and when you read stories like “Your Brown Diary”, you find Chika Unigwe. It's
not all the time that you get to read something as fresh and poignant as this;
very electrifying. Readers will finish reading Nonso Uzozie's collection of
short stories and feel they walked into another world. It's enthralling and
highly addictive; loved every story so much."

“Nonso Uzozie's debut collection of
short stories, I will Give My Son a Name, offers vignette glimpses into the
lives and struggles of everyday people. Told in different styles, Uzozie proves
to be a writer to watch out for.”
—Jude Dibia, author of Blackbird and Unbridled
"I Will Give My Son a Name is a
finely crafted collection of short stories. Nonso Uzozie is an interesting and
distinct author. He is definitely one to watch."
