πππππππ is a stunning collection of stories that redefines what we consider βmadness.β Rather than focusing on insanity in the traditional sense, it highlights the irrational beliefs, fears, and behaviors that shape human livesβoften in ways we fail to question.
One story delves into the horrors of boarding schools, another follows a mother who keeps taking her daughter to witch doctors, convinced she is an ogbanje. Then thereβs the hilarious tale of a family so attached to their chicken that they refuse to kill it, treating it like part of the family.
°°°Uche Okonkwoβs storytelling is impeccable, and Iβll gladly read anything she writes.π
