Embark on a journey that is as funny as it is transformative.
In The Music of Water, Lola R. Opeyemi and her unforgettable travel companion, Cadette, traverse the heartlands of Southern and Eastern Africa—South Africa, Namibia, Zambia, Rwanda, Uganda, Tanzania, Kenya and Mozambique—on a caper that unfolds in laughter, discovery, and unexpected moments of grace.
With curiosity as her compass and wit as her guide, Lola R. Opeyemi turns every riverbank, market, and quiet stream into a stage where the absurd meets the sublime.
Written with curiosity and a sharp eye for the absurd, the result is a hilarious and eye-opening travelogue with fellow caper and travel companion, Cadette.
From intimate human encounters in Nairobi to the surreal beauty of waterfalls in Sipi Falls, Uganda. It’s a story that surprises you, lifts you, and reminds you that adventure often hides in the most ordinary moments—and that humor can be the clearest lens through which to experience the world.
Part memoir, part caper, The Music of Water is a vivid voyage into landscapes both external and internal—and one irresistible invitation to wander.
