Book cover for Homegoing
Cobbe’s family feasted off Effia’s burgeoning womanhood. Their bellies, their hands, were never empty.
Mimi
I love this imagery because it so tragically describes how women are property and are treated as such. And that her growing into a young woman (and yet still a child) is somehow this “gift” to the men of the village. And even within that fucked up idea is the even MORE fucked up notion that the FATHER should be rewarded for this blossoming.
