Please join us for the Worldview Project monthly book club. This month we will be discussing best-selling book, The Girl with the Louding Voice - by Abi Dar?.
bi Dar??s debut novel, The Girl with the Louding Voice, is like a blend of Etaf Rum?s A Woman Is No Man and Tara Westover?s Educated (so buckle up). In it Adunni, a fourteen-year-old Nigerian girl, endures a series of unfortunate events in her quest to get an education. The alternative is a life of servitude, something Adunni experiences firsthand when, after escaping an arranged marriage, she lands herself in an even more precarious position in the employ of a sadistic wife and her debauched husband. Buoyed by the memory of her late mother, who wanted her daughter to buck cultural confines and find her (louding) voice, and with the help of a few unlikely allies, Adunni sets about overcoming her sorry lot. The Girl with the Louding Voice is a rousing tale of courage and pluck, and unexpectedly charming. It?s also a reminder of the power of books, especially for those of us afforded the luxury of taking reading, and learning, and dreaming for granted.-Erin Kodicek, Amazon Book Review
