1 post | 1 read | 3 to read
" . . . A novel about an autistic boy whose drawings represent something much deeper than even the doctors who study can grasp; his father, serving 25 to life for murder; his mother, trying to hold herself together and fix her broken child. It's a supernatural journey of crime and punishment, retribution and redemption that ultimately leads to a father saving his son, a mother connecting with her child, and an American family reclaiming itself"--

I loved Creatures of Passage so much I picked up Morowa Yejide first novel, Time of the Locust. Some beautiful lyrical writing but I found that the plot got muddled in this novel. Worth a read. She is an author that I am excited to follow and will read whatever she writes. 3.5 🌟
