When seventeen-year-old Nani loses her older sister and then her father in quick succession, her world spins off its axis. Isolated and misunderstood by her grieving mother and sister, she's drawn to an itinerant preacher, a handsome self-proclaimed man of God who offers her a new place to belong. All too soon, Nani finds herself estranged from her family, tethered to her abusive husband by children she loves but cannot fully comprehend. She must find the courage to break free and wrestle her life back--without losing what she loves most. A modern reimagining of the myth of Hades and Persephone within a Nigerian family, The Middle Daughter charts Nani's journey to freedom and homecoming."-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Families $z Nigeria $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Death $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Grief $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Abusive men $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Clergy $v Fiction. 650 7 $a Abusive men. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00794903 650 7 $a Clergy. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00864014 650 7 $a Death. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00888613 650 7 $a Families. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01728849 650 7 $a Grief. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00947883 651 7 $a Nigeria. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01205229 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423787 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 lcgft 941 $a 1 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20231108010514.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=5EF3A97C627B11EE9D8B625031ECA4DB 994 $a Z0 $b LJWInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
