I liked that short story, probably playing out in Nigeria. 🙂 I never read something from a nigerian author which means that was a first, which is a good thing! 😉👍🏻
„Pauly is a good son. When he brings home three beautiful Masquerades, he’s expecting that his mother will be proud of him. But when his mother begins asking favors of his Masquerades, he realizes that being a good son sometimes means disobeying.“

As I said I liked the story and while it wasn‘t as great as I‘d hoped, it still got some good parts. The description of the masquerades was very detailed and I was able to imagine them very lively. 🎭🙂 In the end it was a little too short and at first I had some issues following the plot (which doesn‘t move all that much anyway) because I wasn‘t familar with the nigerian traditions. So my advice is to read about the aso-oke masquerades before starting this book. 😁👍🏻
