“…just remember that it is the same moon that wanes today that will be full tomorrow. And even the sun, however long it disappears, it always shines again.”
Anuli, Under the Udala Trees pg. 287
The article I included above is an interview from NPR. They interviewed the author of Under the Udala Trees, Chinelo Okparanta about the book. Whether you decide to listen or read, she gives great insight about the story and how she feels about the characters. I particularly liked how she described Ijeoma and her mother’s relationship as opposed to how readers feel about it.
