Özet

A bewitching and immersive Nigerian magic realist novel from an extraordinary literary voice.

Soon you will become the thing all other beasts fear.

Treasure and her mother lost everything when Treasure's daddy died. Haggling for scraps in the market, Treasure meets a spirit who promises to bring her father back—but she has to do something for him first.

Ozoemena has an itch in the middle of her back that can't be scratched. An itch that speaks to her patrilineal destiny, to defend her people by becoming a leopard. Her father impressed upon her what an honour this was before he vanished, but it's one she couldn't want less.

But as the two girls reckon with their burgeoning wildness and the legacy of their fathers' decisions, Ozoemena's fellow students at her new boarding school start to vanish. Treasure and Ozoemena will face terrible choices as each must ask herself: in a world that always says 'no' to women, what must two young girls sacrifice to get what is theirs?

Going to listen again now that i have fully grasped the style of the book. It’s quite dark but it’s very well written

Extremely well written

Loved the narration - took me back to my childhood and formative years growing up in Africa. Some challenging words that I had to gloss over as couldn't find the meaning online. Does detract from the story though. This is an author I'd read again for sure!

The descriptions!

A great story and the writing style reminds me of Ben Okri. The Narrators did their best but most of the names were mispronounced. Cultural awareness were lacking. Phrases were butchered. All these annoyed me so much it took the enjoyment out of it. The accents were Wakandan 😅 . If it had English names, it would have been incredible. It was disappointing.

If you are Nigerian (Igbo especially) rwad the book yourself
