Collected by Yoruba poet Bakare Gbadamosi and the scholar Ulli Beier, Not Even God Is Ripe Enough is a mesmerising collection of traditional oral stories and Yoruba fables.
Full of Yoruba proverbs and magical realism, these tales range from timeless tales steeped in wisdom to bizarre stories of talking animals and surprising twists.
Translated into English by Ulli Beier
