Religion is a recurring idea. To American readers, Nhamo's religion might seem like a jumble of superstitions rather than what we would consider religion. However, her beliefs do for her what religion is supposed to: they help her make decisions, they comfort her when she needs it, they help her define the world and her place in it.
