Godwin by Joseph O'Neill
"Godwin" follows the journey of two brothers, Mark and Geoff, as they embark on a quest to find a young African soccer talent who could change their lives. Mark, a technical writer from Pittsburgh, is drawn into the adventure by his half-brother Geoff, a soccer agent from the UK. Together, they navigate the complexities of family ties, the world of soccer, and the challenges of international business. The story is told through the perspectives of Mark and his colleague Lakesha, exploring themes of migration, ambition, and the impact of colonial history on modern life.
