Review: Broken Places & Outer Spaces: Finding Creativity in the Unexpected
Broken Places & Outer Spaces: Finding Creativity in the Unexpected by Nnedi Okorafor
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Acclaimed author Nnedi Okorafor's moving account of her experience with paralysis following scoliosis surgery at nineteen sheds insight into so much of her work. From her love of insects to her frightening experiences with racism while growing up in Chicago, you can find traces of her experiences in her Akata Witch series and her Binti novella trilogy. A fascinating and poignant account of a life-defining, if terrifying, experience.
