Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'SHRIEKS AND GIGGLES'>The Tree That Feeds on Silence 'When a child cries at midnight and the dog does not bark, it is the ancestors rocking the cradle.' Old Tiv proverb In the deep belly of Taraba State, beneath skies that burn like ochre cloth and winds that speak in riddles, lies a place the world forgot: Gindin Doruwa. This village, carved from red earth and soaked in whispered memory, is watched over by a tree the elders call 'Baobab Ajiyan-Kunu', 'The Crimson Baobab'. It bears no fruit. Only bones. And it remembers every child taken beneath a silent eclipse. In Gindin Doruwa, they say: 'When the moon swallows the sun, someone's child must go to balance the light.' The story follows a stranger from Jalingo, a woman armed with nothing but a notebook and a strong will. They laughed at her. But as every river knows, even a single stone can wake a sleeping current. What she found beneath that tree was older than the soil, darker than any shadow, and louder than any silence. Because in Gindin Doruwa, secrets do not die, they wait. And the tree It remembers everything. So prepare your heart, sharpen your ears, and hold your children close. The Fifth Tale is almost here. Until then, May Your Sleep Be Sweet And Your Silence Your Own.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - - Get ready, friends, for a story that will chill your bones and stir your heart. SHRIEKS AND GIGGLES returns with its Fourth Tale, >This is not just another tale.>Here, the living dance with the unseen, and the line between man and beast is thinner than the thread in a weaver's loom. 'When the moon is full, the hyena laughs, and the wise man bolts his door,' the elders say, their voices cracking like old firewood. In this land, marriage is not always between hearts. Sometimes, it is a bargain, spirit joining with flesh. Wealth flows like river water, but the price is counted not in coins, but in bloodlines. 'He who marries a stranger weds the unknown,' the people of Enugu-Ezike warn.>Obianuju, a woman born from humble soil, is given to a man who is more legend than flesh.>They said he could not die. They said his children would never bleed. But in this land, truth wears many masks, and not all of them are kind. Buried deep in tradition and hunger for riches is a dark secret, a family cursed by an ancient appetite, hidden beneath the bright cloth of wealth and silence. 'The gourd that holds the forbidden brew must never be shaken,' the elders say. But some thirsts. they cannot be denied. And when old doors are broken and sacred oaths torn, the hills of Enugu-Ezike awake, singing songs of blood and betrayal. A mother must choose: her love for her children or the curse that runs in their veins. A village must face the sins it has buried under dance, laughter, and bride price coins. In 'SHRIEKS AND GIGGLES (The Hyena's Bride: Tales From Enugu-Ezike),' you will walk the red dust roads where loyalty cuts like a knife, where laughter can turn into snarls, and where forgetting the old ways costs you in howls beneath a blood-red moon. 'The hyena may wear the cloak of a man, but his laughter will always betray him.' So the elders say. Come close now. This is a tale stitched from shadows. Listen well. Because the hills. they remember. A Taste From Chapter Five: 'Her ears ring with silence so deep it presses against her skull. And then. A breath. Heavy and wet, like a beast exhaling behind her neck. Slowly, fear chewing her insides raw, Obianuju turns. Oduma stands there. his face neither man nor beast but something trapped between. Hyena jaws. Human eyes.' Happy reading, Anselm Eme.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - - Prepare your heart, for a tale is coming that walks softly but leaves footprints deep in the soul. 'SHRIEKS AND GIGGLES,' the haunting collection of mystery and horror short stories, proudly brings you its Third Tale, titled 'SHRIEKS AND GIGGLES (The Witch Drum of Ikom).' Some stories are told boldly at the village square, with open palms and loud laughter. Others are spoken only when the night is thick and the fire has burned low, shared in whispers meant for ears that will not betray them.>Born from the deep belly of Ikom, where the Afi rainforest breathes and rivers murmur old secrets, this story carries the weight of generations. Here, the elders say, 'When the root rots, the tree falls without a sound.' In these lands, silence is not emptiness, it is a burden passed from mother to daughter, from elder to child, woven into songs no one dares to finish. In this tale, a gifted girl, Ndifreke Ndem, stumbles upon what should have remained buried: a drum older than memory, heavier than grief. Under a blood-red moon, the drum hums, not to entertain, but to awaken the hidden betrayals that shaped her bloodline. In Ikom, not every rhythm calls for dancing.>Here is a glimpse from Chapter Four: - 'When Ndifreke's drumbeat reached that cursed earth, the ground shivered. First a tremble, like the soft footfall of a lizard. Then a deep heaving, as if the earth itself was breathing. Cracks spider webbed across the graves. And then. they rose.' Come closer.>Happy Reading, Anselm Eme.…
