{"product_id":"books-goodbye-lucille-by-segun-afolabi","title":"Goodbye Lucille","description":"It's Berlin, summer 1985. Vincent is an overweight, struggling photographer living in a shabby apartment in Kreuzberg. His neighbours and friends are an ex-marine transsexual escort girl, a Kurdish refugee, a Nigerian playboy and various 'artistic' types. Vincent misses Lucille, the girl he left behind in London; he has not spoken to his adoptive father for years and resents his successful older brother. Content to get drunk in bars and embark on a series of one-night stands, Vincent isn't doing very much at all. Then a chance encounter, the murder of a charismatic politician and an urgent phone call from his aunt shake up his world and Vincent finally has to stop slacking and take some control. With unique insight into a Europe of immigrants that won him praise for his collection of short stories, Segun Afolabi has written a moving novel about the personal politics of identity and a gentle exploration of the nature of true love.","brand":"World of Books ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53509373329681,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780224076036_50501741-e80d-4f2f-92d4-d606043641e5.jpg?v=1778160412","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/en-gb\/products\/books-goodbye-lucille-by-segun-afolabi","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
