What is the place of our family in our hearts? In this stunning debut collection, Ìfẹ́olúwa Àyàndélé reveals this interior world in which the past sings its lament in the present moment. The father is Àyàndélé's connection to the deep past and his ancestors, who move through love and the Nigerian-Biafran war, but also through the luxuriant landscape of rivers and forests. How does one person balance the past and the present? Animals can show us the way of nature. Prayer can form a river of the soul as it chants, praises, and reveres the terrible beauty of this world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e ÃfÃ©olÃºwa ÃyÃ ndÃ©lÃ©\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Moon City Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/06\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 80\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780913785713","brand":"Moon City Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45109288272009,"sku":"9780913785713","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_07493ee8-7de9-4edc-bf37-3899cb793d88.jpg?v=1767073894","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/my-father-paints-his-dreams-on-my-body-poems-9780913785713","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
