‘On the eve of her first period, LWAZI discovers she will inherit her grandmother VATISWA’s empyrean Sangoma abilities. Unwittingly wrapped in this new ineffable world, Lwazi is determined to keep the event of her period a secret from her grandmother in an attempt to escape her inevitable transfigure into womanhood and mysticism.’
