Summary:

In the early sixties, Tayo Ajayi sails to England from Nigeria to take up a scholarship

at Oxford University. There he discovers a whole generation high on visions of a new

and better world. He meets Vanessa Richardson, the beautiful daughter of a former

colonial officer. Their story, which spans four decades, is a bittersweet tale of a brave

but doomed affair and the universal desire to fall truly, madly and deeply in love.

This is a lyrical and moving story of unfulfilled love fraught with the weight of

history, race and geography and intertwined with questions of belonging, ageing, faith

and family secrets. In Dependence explores the complexities of contemporary Africa, its

diaspora and its interdependence with the rest of the world.
