The magical tales in The Whispering Trees capture the essence of life, death and coincidence in Northern Nigeria.
Myth and reality intertwine in stories featuring political agitators, newly-wedded widows, and the tormented
whirlwind, Kyakkyawa. The two medicine men of Mazade battle against their egos, an epidemic and an enigmatic
witch. And who is Okhiwo, whose arrival is heralded by a pair of little white butterflies?
