Naniki / by Kempadoo, Oonya,author.;
Includes bibliographical references.Through luminescent light, ancestral paths, and a Caribbean spirit-inflected world, Naniki explores the musings and inner workings of the deep blue - the Caribbean Sea - and its shape-shifting sea beings. As the sea mirrors the light from the blue skies, and its depths are exposed by daggers of sunlight, so too Naniki reveals and honours the Indigenous roots of the Caribbean and its people, whose destiny is tied to the sea, the vessel of collective memory. Set in the Caribbean Basin, Naniki is a futuristic cross-cultural tale imbued with magic realism. Co-protagonists Amana and Skelele are made of water and air, their essence intertwined with Taino and African ancestry. They evolved as elemental beings of the Anthropocene, and shape-shifting with their naniki (active spirits) or animal avatars, they begin an archipelagic journey to see the strange future they dreamed of. Until devastation erupts. Tasked by their elders to go back in time to the source of the First People's knowledge, they must surmount historical and mythological challenges alike. How can they navigate and overcome to regenerate themselves, their love, their islands, and their seas?
