The key to a house, the key to a heart, the key to a secret-Oyeyemis keys not only unlock elements of her characters lives, they promise further labyrinths on the other side. In Books and Roses one special key opens a library, a garden, and clues to at least two lovers fates. In Is Your Blood as Red as This? an unlikely key opens the heart of a student at a puppeteering school. Sorry Doesnt Sweeten Her Tea involves a house of locks, where doors can be closed only with a key-with surprising, unobservable developments. And in If a Book Is Locked Theres Probably a Good Reason for That Don't You Think, a key keeps a mystical diary locked (for good reason).Oyeyemis tales span multiple times and landscapes as they tease boundaries between coexisting realities. Is a key a gate, a gift, or an invitation? What Is Not Yours Is Not Yours captivates as it explores the many possible answers.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51971093594400,"sku":"NEW1594634645","price":11.87,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/81eZLEcP_hL.jpg?v=1783760355","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/what-is-not-yours-is-not-yours-1594634645","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
