Description
Some stories are buried to protect us. Others are buried to silence us. But all of them, eventually, rise.When fourteen-year-old Nia is sent to live with her grandmother in a quiet rural village, she doesn't expect much, certainly not to stumble upon a crumbling chapel hidden behind fig trees. Inside, a wall of women's names is carved into stone, some worn down, others missing entirely.As Nia begins to uncover the stories behind those names through ancestral dreams, whispered songs, and her grandmother's fading memories, she's drawn into a history long buried: of women erased, silenced, and renamed.In confronting her own family's secrets, Nia finds the strength to name what was never meant to be spoken and to give voice to those the world tried to forget.The Names We Bury is a lyrical and haunting novel about legacy, memory, and the power of remembering out loud.
