Описание и характеристики
Aged fourteen, she is a commodity, a wife, a servant.
She is also smart, funny, curious, with a spirit and joy infectious to those around her.
And despite her situation going from bad to worse, she has a plan to escape: she will find her "louding voice" and get her education, so that she can speak up for herself - and all the girls who came before her.
As she turns enemies into friends and superiors into aides, Adunni will take you with her on a heart-breaking but inspiring journey from a small village to the wealthy enclaves of Lagos, and show you that no matter the situation, there is always some joy to be found.

Если бы существовала категория 6 звезд, я бы дал этой книге такую оценку. Это потрясающая книга с историческими фактами об истории Нигерии. Г-жа Даре рассказывает историю с юмором и надеждой, указывая при этом на несправедливость в Нигерии и на всем континенте. Во время чтения книги мне пришло в голову, что африканский континент эксплуатируется снова и снова, а те, кто там живет, просто пытаются выжить. Женщины по всей стране часто являются кормильцами семьи. Ее история написана мужественно, с духом доброты, заботы и надежды.
Meet Adunni, a teenage girl born into a rural Nigerian village.
Aged fourteen, she is a commodity, a wife, a servant.
She is also smart, funny, curious, with a spirit and joy infectious to those around her.
And despite her situation going from bad to worse, she has a plan to escape: she will find her "louding voice" and get her education, so that she can speak up for herself - and all the girls who came before her.
As she turns enemies into friends and superiors into aides, Adunni will take you with her on a heart-breaking but inspiring journey from a small village to the wealthy enclaves of Lagos, and show you that no matter the situation, there is always some joy to be found.
