Description
Bolu Babalola takes the most beautiful love stories from history and mythology and rewrites them with incredible detail and vivacity in her debut collection. Focusing on the magical folktales of West Africa, she also reimagines iconic Greek myths, ancient legends from the Middle East, and stories from countries that no longer exist in our world. A high-born Nigerian goddess feels beaten down and unappreciated by her gregarious lover and longs to be truly seen. A young businesswoman attempts to make a great leap in her company, and an even greater one in her love life. A powerful Ghanaian spokeswoman must decide whether to uphold her family’s politics or remain true to her heart. From the passion of love at first sight to the realisation that self-love takes precedence, the characters in these vibrant stories navigate this complex human emotion and try to understand why it holds them hostage. Moving across perspectives, continents and genres, from the historic to the vividly current, Love in Colour celebrates romance in all its forms.
