Ayɛwohomumɔ [ENG: You Have Made Yourself Wretched]
Looking out her window at one of Europe’s rainiest cities, a self-described pluviophile (lover of rain) reminisces about the tropical storms of her Ghanaian childhood. Drawing upon Akan traditions for naming the months, Ayɛwohomumɔ [You Have Made Yourself Wretched] is a short, poetic portrait of winter and the “winter blues” in Belgium.
