Read by the author.
Nnedi Okorafor takes the reader on a journey from her hospital bed deep into her memories, from her painful first experiences with racism as a child in Chicago to her powerful visits to her parents' hometown in Nigeria. From Frida Kahlo to Mary Shelly, she examines great artists and writers who have pushed through their limitations, using hardship to fuel their work. Through these compelling stories and her own, Nnedi Okorafor reveals a universal truth: What we perceive as limitations have the potential to become our greatest strengths, far greater than when we were unbroken.
