The novel A Storm Blew in from Paradise is based on Anyuru's own father's fate The translator Rachel Willson-Broyles is based in Saint Paul, Minnesota and will help promote the book "Anyuru's searingly poetic style rescues his writing from bleakness and sentimentality alike as he confronts the lies we live by. 'I don't want to escape history but life. I want the wind to have brought us out of nowhere and I wish we were on our way to another nowhere...That the homeland is a lie. That our homeland is... merely hours, seconds, instants, that there is no origin.'" The Independent, UK
