'Hilarious yet harrowing'

Aycayia is a far cry from the Little Mermaid whose beauty and grace was dreamt up by Hans Christian Andersen, then made into plastic perfection by Walt Disney in the form of the flame-haired Ariel in The Little Mermaid. For starters, she is black. There are no porcelain cheeks, piercing blue eyes or impossibly nipped-in waistline either. Roffey’s subverts the fairtyale.

Hilarious yet harrowing.
