In this second book of Grief Child, Adu receives unpleasant news and a premonition about his friend and mentor Yaro and travels to the north to look for him.
In a different culture and a new environment, loads of shocks, surprises, fears, and tears await him.
Unlike Adu the small boy, who roamed the forest farms of Susa before the disaster befell his family, he is now a young adult undertaking new ventures and experimenting with strange ways of doing things.
In Adu, the child of grief is no longer a child, nor is he lonely; but grief and headaches still follow him into his new adventures.
Find out what became of Yaro, Teacher Ofori and Beckie, the village of Susa, and Adu’s best friend Ama.
Was aunt Goma really the leopard in Adu’s dreams? Why did she hate Adu so much? How about Mansa and the secret between her and Goma?
Adu, the sequel to the Commonwealth Writers’ Prize Grief Child, answers these questions and reveals more happenings in the life of the now young adult.
If you enjoyed Grief Child and wept with Adu, here is the opportunity to laugh with him and, well, shed a few more tears!
This new novel displays author Lawrence Darmani’s storytelling skill that has endeared him to readers over the years.
