As I understand it, this is a re-telling of some traditional Luo stories. I thought it was interesting, and the story was well told.

Vivid imagery, intense emotion, not particularly plot-heavy. I listened to it on audible because it's short and included in the membership. The narration there is really emotive, and I'll definitely listen to it again.
