Descripción: Críticas "Adunni's brave, fresh voice powerfully articulates a resounding anger toward Africa's toxic patriarchy. . . . Daré draws the reader in with a vivid character whose dire circumstances are contrasted with her natural creativity (she keeps her spirits up by composing comic songs imagining a fabulous future) and her undying will to survive. . . . Throughout her harrowing coming-of-age journey, told with verve and compassion, Adunni never loses the 'louding voice' that makes Daré's story, and her protagonist, so unforgettable."--TheNew York Times Book Review"Inspiring . . . explores a spirit and hope that cannot be contained even in the grimmest of circumstances."--Entertainment Weekly "It will break your heart and then it will put it back together again."--Jenna Bush Hager on the Today show "I'm excited about this debut novel from Nigerian author Abi Daré. . . .

I am enraptured by this book."--Elizabeth Gilbert, #1 New York Times bestselling author of City of Girls and Eat, Pray, Love "The girl with the louding voice is a character for the ages. Adunni is a girl who narrates her own suffering with levity, who paints depth and texture and beauty into her Nigerian homeland, who tenderly cultivates her own humanity even while everything around her seeks to thwart it. She is an ambassador for girls everywhere. She is important, funny, brave, and enduring.

Brava to Daré for bringing this compelling character out of the shadows and into our lives."--Tara Conklin, New York Times bestselling author of The House Girl and The Last Romantics"A stunning novel--original, beautiful, and powerful.
