In stock
The last maidens of Ramogi is a myth about how a mysterious lake came to be. Anyango Nyar Gwasi, one of the last maidens of Ramogi—who is the father of the Luo tribe ancestry, wishes that his first wife lives amongst his descendants. Anyango Nyar Gwasi is chosen as a reincarnation of the first wife of Ramogi as many have been before her, some from her own bloodline. She finds out about it in her life’s journey to find a home away from home. It is riddled with folklore fantasy and a venture in the fascinating enclaves of the Luo culture.
