The magical tales in The Whispering Trees capture the essence of life, death, and coincidence in Northern Nigeria. Myth and reality intertwine in stories featuring cat-eyed English witches, political agitators, newly-wedded widows, and the tormented whirlwind, Kyakkyawa. The two medicine men of Mazade battle against their egos, an epidemic, and an enigmatic witch. And who is Okhiwo, whose arrival is heralded by a pair of little white butterflies?
