“An up-close portrait of middle-class Nigeria exploring the boundaries of morals and public decorum. Pitched between humor and despair, with stripped-down, evocative prose, A Bit of Difference bristles with penknife-sharp dialogue, but its truths are more subtle, hiding in the unspoken. Ultimately, A Bit of Difference explores â€“ with a hint of mischiefâ€“the problem of how to look like you have no problems when you have abundant problemsâ€“the universal problem of the socially-motivated classes.”
