Happiness Like Water
by Chinelo Okparanta
Overall Rating: 3.5/5
Plot: 3/5
Characters: 5/5
Writing: 3/5
This collection of short stories and essays is written by a Nigerian immigrant in scenes from her homeland.
While I found the stories and characters fascinating, I struggled greatly with the voice. I didn't finish the material, but I hope to go back when I have more cognitive space to give this collection the attention it deserves. I can tell it's important and meaningful, but I just wasn't in the right place to read it this time around.
Watch this space.
