Description
A beautiful novel by the author of the bestseller Americana about the emotional storms of adolescence, strong family bonds, and the radiant promise of freedom. Fifteen-year-old Kambili and her older brother Jaja live a privileged life in Enugu, Nigeria. However, nothing is as idyllic as it seems at first glance. Kambili's father is revered by the community as a generous man, yet he is also fanatically religious and behaves like a despot at home. Silence and a heavy atmosphere reign in the house. Nigeria is descending into chaos after a military coup, so the siblings are sent to their aunt in a small town. Aunt Ifeoma teaches at the university, her home is filled with books, it smells of nutmeg and curry, and the sound of children's laughter fills her house. When Kambili and Jaja return home, the tension escalates and culminates in a twist that changes everyone's lives.
