Spirits that are ancestors ancestors that are memory memory that still lives.</p><p>In this mythic microbook Chinenye Egbuna Ikwuemesi reawakens the Orisha - not as relics of a vanished religion but as living presences.

Gods like Ogirini Aria Yaya and Benita Masret - mythic figures formed when silence demanded story.</p><p>This is the first book in <em>The Mythic Codex</em> a series of mythohistorical microbooks designed to reclaim African mythology as a source of imagination story and sacred fire.</p><p></p>
