Margaret Linsley Clayton Community RoomJoin us for a discussion of Cursed Daughters by Oyinkan Braithwaite.
When Ebun gives birth to her daughter, Eniiyi, on the day they bury her cousin Monife, there is no denying the startling resemblance between the child and the dead woman. So begins the belief, fostered and fanned by the entire family, that Eniiyi is the actual reincarnation of Monife, fated to follow in her footsteps in all ways, including that tragic end. There is also the matter of a family curse which has been handed down from generation to generation, breaking hearts and causing three generations of abandoned Falodun women to live under the same roof. When Eniiyi falls in love with the handsome boy she saves from drowning, she can no longer run from her family’s history.
Please note: this Book Discussion meets on Wednesday nights and Thursday afternoons. Feel free to join one or both meetings. Copies of the book are available while supplies last.
