No One Leaves Clean is a raw and haunting portrait of modern Ghana, where ambition collides with the crushing realities of urban life. In the streets of Takoradi and Accra, a man battered by stalled dreams and a marriage strained by desire for wealth fights to keep his dignity in a nation wrestling with its own broken promises. Blending realism with lyrical and magical currents, this novel explores the weight of history on ordinary people, the silent ruins of masculinity and marriage, and the fierce resilience demanded by poverty. Visceral, unflinching, and beautifully told, No One Leaves Clean reveals what it means to dream, survive, and leave a mark in a place where nothing and no one escapes untouched.
