Requiem for Potatoes by Bethlehem Attfield





This amusing audio musical story is based on Adam Reta’s Amharic short story Yedinich Mewasit – translated and produced by Bethlehem Attfield. It is set on a farm where potatoes passionately discuss the meaning of life and death through chorus. The green potato is ostracised from the community for boldly standing against the wide held belief that their life is predestined and that death in service of nourishing humans is to be celebrated and welcome. Although the green potato manages to defy the self-sacrifice rule, will he succeed to completely evade fate within the food chain? This Ethiopian allegorical story is a social satire for young people’s unwavering belief and reckless behaviour.
