Cosy, sweet, and intimate, Until the Last Petal Falls is a character-driven Nigerian queerplatonic retelling of Beauty and the Beast.
When Eru was eleven years old, he met an unforgettable boy.
Only a few weeks after, he forgot all about that boy.
Ten years later, after his parents' sudden deaths, all Eru wants is to find a way out of the village he was supposed to leave behind, and escape the abuse of his grieving grandmother. When he receives a summons from Able Mummy, the wife of the High Chief, it seems all of his prayers have been answered.
Able Mummy needs his help. But she and the High Chief have a secret.
Once Eru uncovers the truth, he finds that the fate of the village, and that of the boy he'd been made to forget, could lie solely in his hands.
