A note for parents

This is a collection of literary short stories by a Nigerian-American author exploring complex themes including war, family trauma, and dystopian futures. The stories contain mature content and challenging interpersonal dynamics that require emotional sophistication to process. While culturally rich and thought-provoking, the book is better suited for older teens and adults than younger readers, due to its thematic darkness and literary complexity.
