“Bushman” tells the story of a young Nigerian intellectual who settles in the Bay Area at the end of the tumultuous 1960s and is falsely accused of terrorism during events at a university strike. With irony, poetry, and a delicate touch, David Schickele’s unshakeable debut sets up a thoughtful and provocative dialogue between the two continents.
