The last in the Afrolit Now series, The Sins of The Fathers by Zukiswa Wanner is narrated by a man dealing with immense grief. When he’s unable to heal from the trauma of loss, Akani begins to question his and his father’s role as a parent and, in doing so, awakens to the patterns between them. In trying to avoid being like his father as a husband and as a parent, did he inadvertently become exactly the man he wished not to be? And what secrets lie untold? As he grieves, he wonders whether he was ill-advised to keep secrets that may unwittingly hurt his family.

The Sins of The Fathers explores the toxicity of masculinity from the perspective of one man and asks, even with full recognition of who we should not become, can we avoid destiny?

I liked how the writer put so much lived life in 58 minutes! Three snaps up to you! I feel I listened to a 5 hour audiobook with this intricate story. From The mother and father drama to his drama with is wife. All the things he did while separated. and then to learn what his mother did while separated from his dad. all that down to the end. Bravo 👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾

A beautiful story. The eternal theme of a parent's choices that children are unaware of. Generational pain is felt but not explained, only unwittingly repeatedly.

Relationships of Parent and Child
