Adunni is a fourteen-year-old girl in rural Nigeria with one dream: to find her “louding voice” and use it to change her life. She wants an education, a chance to choose her own future, and the freedom to speak for herself. But when poverty and loss force her into servitude, Adunni’s world narrows to survival.
Still, she refuses to be silent. Her courage and determination shine through cruelty, exploitation, and despair as she discovers allies in unexpected places and the strength within herself to keep fighting.
Abi Daré’s debut is both heartbreaking and luminous, a story of resilience, hope, and the power of self-belief.
Because sometimes the quietest girl carries the loudest voice of all.
