Orisha is a colorful and misunderstood religion practiced in Trinidad and Tobago with ties to the Yorba culture of Nigeria. Monique Joiner Siedlak, explores this African-routed tradition starting with a look at the roots of this vibrant and colorful tradition and how it evolved to where it is today. This fascinating book covers topics such as the past persecution of Orisha followers, the religion’s deities, practices, ceremonies, and ties to aspects of the Catholic Church.

Good info but needed warmth
Revisado: 10-08-20
I enjoyed the info in the book but it read more like a textbook and not like an experience. The author normally writes with warmth and enthusiasm but it was lacking in this book. I was extremely disappointed with the narrator's consistent mispronouncation of Trinidadian colloquial words. As a Trinidadian who was raised around spiritual and Shango baptists and now a student of Ida I found myself rewinding parts to try to figure out what word was being tortured; it really hurt my ear. Also, there were a few time the narrator had to reread words, I really wished those were removed.
