Publisher's Description
A young Nigerian lady moves from one aimless relationship to another in search of purpose and meaning. She experiences it all: an arranged marriage to a suitor whom she never met living abroad, early widowhood, a new lease of life offered through education, and five failed relationships. She undergoes an epiphany which offers clarity, but will her new version be enough or will her past entanglements permanently define her and her choices?

“Fellie Oka Moh, using very simple, fluid, lucid, and occasionally sarcastic language, paints a vivid picture of a typical Igbo woman from birth, childhood, and teenage life to maturity, clearly exposing female societal roles and expectations. . . . I find this piece of prose captivating and inspiring. It is a must-read for every child, man, or woman who . . . desires to understand the experiences and challenges of women in a typical African Igbo society. You can’t stop reading until you get to the end. Happy reading, everyone!”
