Produktbeskrivning
A twisty thriller about the fate of a sprawling family in Lagos, Lakiriboto is a queer, feminist revenge thriller like no other, in which murder, betrayal, and witchcraft collide - with explosive results. When her grandmother dies in the night, Moremi''s fate falls to her uncle, the grasping family chief who sends her off to work as a housemaid in Lagos.
On arriving there, Moremi finds that the big city is not all she thought it would be. But she''s not alone. After another family death, Kudirat, accused of bringing misfortune to her close family, has also been sent to live as a maid in the same house, scrubbing floors and folding laundry for long-suffering Tola, whose abusive doctor husband refuses to treat.
Together, with the help of her queer aunt Morieba, the four women must wrestle back control of their lives as the patriarchal traditions that govern the family push back against their freedoms. When Tola''s condition worsens, someone new emerges, someone with revenge and redemption in mind.
Mixing family saga, mobster pulp, and queer coming-of age, Lakiriboto is a staggeringly original and surprising novel about Nigeria''s queer and feminist communities, the struggles they face, and the lengths they will go to to overcome them.
