the well written - nnedi okorafor

"If you spend enough time in the desert, you will hear it speak."

"Of course," I said.  "It speaks loudest in wind."

"Right," Mwita said.  "Butterflies understand the desert well.
That's why they move this way and that.  They're always
Holding Conversation with the land.  They talk as much as
they listen."
