Happy listening.

In the novel Cursed Daughters, the Faladin family women are afflicted by a curse.

No men will call your houses home, and if they try, they will not have peace.

Essentially, the romantic relationships are doomed to fail, and this causes three generations of women to suffer through heartbreak and to live under one roof.

Cursed Daughters by Oyanko Braithwaite is the story of the youngest generation attempting to, perhaps unwisely, beat the curse, outrun the curse.

It's contemporary literary fiction with maybe a touch of fantasy.

It's set in Lagos, Nigeria and wicked sharp.

And by the way, if you recognize the name Oyanko Braithwaite,

It might be because she also published My Sister, the Serial Killer, which was an internationally critically acclaimed murder mystery back in 2018.

And while Cursed Daughters is definitely different than that one, it's already rightfully getting very good reviews.

Today, I'm talking to Oyanko Brithwaite.

Cursed Daughters is available on Sila in synthetic audio.

For the time being, you can find the human narrated audio version on Audible.

It's about nine and a half hours long and narrated by three women, each given one of the three point of view characters.

It's narrated by Diana Ikeni, Neiopia Clark, and Rurushi Opia.

Here's a sample of that audiobook.

That was a sample from Cursed Daughters by Oinko Braithwaite.

Orenko, thank you so much for making time.
