About this audiobook
Sometimes we swim, sometimes we float, other times we are drowning. It’s not always easy to know which is which.
It is the ten-year anniversary of her sister’s death, and Nia is grappling with her grief, and balancing the complicated relationships weaving through her life.
There is smart and sexy Temi; Melvin, her teenage love; and her new yet intimate friendship with Rahul and Crystal. But looming large over everything is her mother SuSu, whose battle with bipolar disorder continues to cast a profound shadow over Nia.
Delving deep into the intricate tapestry of Nia’s life, Like Water Like Sea is a poignant tale of self-discovery and resilience, sexuality and motherhood, and falling apart to become truly whole.
“A delicate tale unlike any other, told with a tenderness, subtlety and restraint, in enchanting prose that only someone with mastery like Olumide could showcase.”—Troy Onyango, author of For What Are Butterflies Without Their Wings
