Description

In this poignant novel, a Nigerian-American high school senior named Niru navigates the complexities of identity and belonging as he prepares for his future at Harvard. The story delves into the profound power of words, exploring who has the authority to speak and who is silenced. It is a compelling examination of self-identification and the struggle for one's voice in a world that often dictates narratives. Through Niru's journey, the novel powerfully illustrates the weight of unspoken truths and the courage it takes to define oneself.
