Under the Udala Trees by Chinelo Okparanta
4.25
An incredible read. I really loved the MC and her POV. The integration of Nigerian folklore and also her seemingly out of place Christian values gave this novel so many intersecting & dynamic layers.
It's so queer! Incredibly queer and the narration is just so unrelentingly gay and that's so relatable. This novel allows for queers everywhere to understand what being queer in Nigeria might feel like.
