Choice. For those readers who look to fiction to transport us to unfamiliar places, consider reading Odafe Atogun’s finely written debut novel titled,
Taduno’s Song. Reminiscent of the myth of Orpheus and Eurydice, the novel presents a love story set within a tyrannical regime. Protagonist Taduno returns to his homeland from exile and finds that while he left as a popular musical celebrity, upon his return no one remembers him. Atogun sets up Taduno to make a difficult choice, and by the time that choice is made, readers will recognize harmony in the decision made for love.
Rating: Four-star (I like it)
