Levi’s Daughter: And The Preserved Tablet
By Aminah Segi Adeola
A collection of delightful short stories and poems, touching on love, life, death, betrayal, gratitude, creation and more.
Every day, each of our lives are filled with experiences. Some fun, some challenging and some regarded as a rite of passage. Some experiences are fleeting, while some last over a long period. A few odd ones are regarded as the cultural norm and some can be so downright scary, that they could either make or break us, leading us to believe it could not possibly be happening in reality as we begin to wonder, “why me?”
The stories include that of a father’s reaction towards realising his young child was a rascal drinker and had been consuming alcohol secretly, a mother emotionally tortured and torn apart from having to make a choice, which could result in her child being separated from her, and that of a longed-for pregnancy resulting in a strangely appreciated miscarriage. These are just some of the tales Aminah shares in a collection of reflective short stories, which bear life nuggets and experiences that are not peculiar to her alone, but to others who have been through similar or more trying life journeys.
The stories are funny, nostalgic, heartbreakingly honest and empowering. It is hoped that the introspective pieces may help the reader view their life’s experiences from a different and more grateful perspective using The Qur’an and Hadith as guide.
