Inglorious Bookworms will be reading “The Lies of the Ajungo” by Moses Ose Utomi in September.
“In the City of Lies, they cut out your tongue when you turn thirteen, to appease the terrifying Ajungo Empire and make sure it continues sending water. Tutu will be thirteen in three days, but his parched mother won’t last that long. So Tutu goes to his oba and makes a deal: she provides water for his mother, and in exchange he will travel out into the desert and bring back water for the city. Thus begins Tutu’s quest for the salvation of his mother, his city, and himself.”
The discussion will take place at 6:00 p.m. on Wednesday, Sept. 25 at Don Tomasso’s restaurant. Copies of the book are available upon request at the library’s front desk. It is also available as an ebook on Libby.
