  7. Chapter 9 highlightschapter is focused on the quest for meaning (why be born?) • Amadi = leprosy – white skin – they laugh now but it is symbolic for later • Ezinma is fearless – wishes she was a boy, he is afraid – the reason why he killed Ikemafuna, his fear – he wishes he was fearless like Enzima • The name of Death is Onwum • The birth of children is a woman’s crowning glory
