Uchenna Awoke celebrates debut novel, 'The Liquid Eye of a Moon'

Uchenna Awoke is a self-taught writer. He says that growing up in Nigeria, his parents weren’t especially excited about their son wanting to write for a career. An avid reader, he stuck with it, and his first novel, "The Liquid Eye of a Moon," has just been published by Catapult Press. Awoke visited the Anthony and Susan Hui News Studio to discuss the novel.
