A mythic love story set in Trinidad, Ayanna Lloyd Banwo's radiant debut is a masterwork of lush imagination and exuberant storytelling—a spellbinding and hopeful novel about inheritance, loss, and love's seismic power to heal.In the old house on a hill, where the city meets the rainforest, Yejide's mother is dying. She is leaving behind a legacy that now passes to Yejide: one St Bernard woman in every generation has the power to shepherd the city's souls into the afterlife. But after years of suffering her mother's neglect and bitterness, Yejide is looking for a way out. Raised in the countryside by a devout Rastafarian mother, Darwin has always abided by the religious commandment not to interact with death. He has never been to a funeral, much less seen a dead body. But when the only job he can find is grave digging, he must betray the life his mother built for him in order to provide for them both. Newly shorn of his dreadlocks and his past, and determined to prove himself, Darwin finds himself adrift in a city electric with possibility and danger. Yejide and Darwin will meet inside the gates of Fidelis, an ancient and sprawling cemetery, where the dead lie uneasy in their graves and a reckoning with fate beckons them both.

Johny Pitts talks to Trinidadian author Ayanna Lloyd Banwo about her debut novel When We Were Birds. It is a carefully crafted story set in the backstreets of Trinidad, where a young man called Darwin has newly arrived in the city of Port Angeles looking for a fresh start and his lost father. He's forced to shed his Rastafarian faith in order to pick up the only work going, as a gravedigger in a sprawling cemetery full of secrets. In a parallel story, Yejide lives with her dying mother in an old house on a hill and is about to inherit a super-natural ancestral power passed on down through the women of the family. The novel blends myth, magic, and indigenous wisdom with everyday struggle and is, ultimately, a passionate love story between two lost souls. Alex Preston's latest novel Winchelsea is set in the 18th century as a young woman enters into the cut throat world of smugglers in a quest to avenge her father's death. And today he takes us through the stormy relationship some of our literary smugglers have had with the truth and the real smugglers that inspired them… We'll be exploring the exquisite racial riddle at the heart of Toni Morrison's first and only short story, Recitatif, with the author of An American Marriage and Silver Sparrow, Tayari Jones as it's published in hardback for the first time.

A Noval by Ayobami Adebayo that tells a story of a couple Yejide and Akin, who has been married since they met and fell in love at university. Though many expected Akin to take several wives, he and Yejide have always agreed: polygamy is not for them. But four years into their marriage - after consulting fertility doctors and healers, trying strange teas and unlikely cures - Yejide is still not pregnant. She assumes she still has time - until her family arrives on her doorstep with a young woman they introduce as Akin's second wife. Furious, shocked, and livid with jealousy, Yejide knows the only way to save her marriage is to get pregnant. Which, finally, she does - but at a cost far greater than she could have dared to imagine. An electrifying novel of enormous emotional power, Stay With Me asks how much we can sacrifice for the sake of family. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/osborne/support

Die junge Nigerianerin Ayobami Adebayo hat mit ihrem Debutroman «Bleib bei mir» ein heikles Thema aufgegriffen: Polygamie. Eine junge Frau heiratet ihren Freund nur unter der Bedingung, dass sie seine einzige Partnerin bleiben wird. Als das Paar kinderlos bleibt, macht die Familie massiv Druck. Eigentlich haben Yejide und Akim alles, was sich ein junges Paar wünscht: eine tiefe Liebe füreinander und einen Job, der ihnen gefällt. Nur ein Kind fehlt noch zu ihrem Glück. Aber sie geniessen ihre Zweisamkeit und warten gelassen ab. Anders Akims Mutter: sie will ihrem Sohn sofort eine zweite Frau ins Haus bringen, um den baldigen Nachwuchs zu sichern. Regelmässig besucht sie ihn deshalb mit möglichen Kandidatinnen in seinem Büro. Akim hält wenig von diesen Vorschlägen, denn er ist an ein Versprechen gebunden: Dass er Yejide als alleinige Partnerin akzeptiert. Aber er hat nicht mit der Beharrlichkeit seiner Verwandten gerechnet. «Bleib bei mir» ist ein eindringlicher Roman über die Macht der Familie, alte Traditionen und moderne Liebe in Afrika. Im Gespräch mit Luzia Stettler erzählt die Autorin Ayobami Adebayo von den Hintergründen ihrer Geschichte und sagt, warum sich immer mehr junge Frauen in Nigeria weigern, nach der Sitte ihrer Vorfahren zu leben und den Ehemann mit anderen Partnerinnen zu teilen.
