Features original music created for the audiobook.

Near the island of Black Conch, a fisherman sings to himself while waiting for a catch. But David attracts a sea-dweller that he never expected - Aycayia, an innocent young woman cursed by jealous wives to live as a mermaid.

When American tourists capture Aycayia, David rescues her and vows to win her trust. Slowly, painfully, she transforms into a woman again. Yet as their love grows, they discover that the world around them is changing - and they cannot escape the curse forever....

I absolutely loved it. The story was amazing, I can't wait to discuss it with my book club. There's going to be some heated debating I think!

Loved it

i really enjoyed this story, but i felt it was too lean and would have benefitted from some further character and story development to flesh out what is a very rich and fascinating story.
the author delivers a story in a truly authentic Trinidadian voice that brought a smile to my face.
the voice acting was excellent, and was almost authentic, except mispronouncing a few Trini words that couldn't be ignored.

authentic, could have been longer

I've been aware of needing to read more books from the global south, and am so grateful I came upon this beauty. I have dwelt in it, re-listened to parts, and been reminded of the courage of love.
The narrators enriched this writing, for me.

A Beauty

Ben Onwukue's beautiful voice totally embodies the spirit of this magical book, enriching its characters with vulnerability, humanity & truth, and Vivienne Acheampong joins him as the voice of a mermaid in whom we cannot but believe. A sweet & moving adult fairytale of love and friendship.

A sumptuous reading of a sensual book
