Riddle by Ogbewe Amadin — Review

Riddle by Ogbewe Amadin belongs to the genre of flash fiction. It is short and it has an unexpected ending. In the beginning, a mother said to her little daughter that her aunt is a witch.

According to her mother, it is bad, but the girl becomes less and less sure as the story goes on. The story also presents the moment of childhood when children realize that their parents may hold views of which they don't always agree.

However, the reader doesn't have enough facts to conclude if the aunt is a good or bad person, the main character only made her assumptions, which gives the reader space for interpretation.
