₦5,000.00
Kukuruku Girl is a collection of stories, made in time. The narratives collectively paint a portrait of the years of innocence steeped in mischief and rascally inquisition into the vast canvas of life as experienced by the author. The recollections are captured in a seeming exactitude of the mindset of the child as it was experienced, in a way that a reader is enmeshed in the thought process that defined the storytelling style.
The author’s style of speaking the stories from her Etuno mother tongue into the English Language lends to the veracity of the tales told. The essence of her cultural heritage pops out very strongly and this makes the collection of stories take on a historical dimension for the people of her native Etuno – Igarra tribe. In an age of fast-eroding self-identity, Kukuruku Girl – Tales of My Childhood is sure to ignite a passion for self-discovery and a sense of communal identity.
