Angie, Sandra and Andrew read from and discuss this dramatic novel.

A young farmer named Chinonso prevents a woman from falling to her death. Bonded by this strange event, he and Ndali fall in love, but it is a mis-match according to her family, who reject him because of his lowly status and lack of education. Is it love or madness that makes Chinonso think he can change his destiny?”

Set across Nigeria and Cyprus, An Orchestra of Minorities, written in the mythic style of the Igbo tradition, weaves a heart-wrenching tale about fate versus free will.
