Great short stories submitted by rachelmcglash on June 15, 2020, 10:39pm This is a fantastic collection of stories which look at the lives of African woman. It was an incredible window into the diffence of African culture and feminism.
Highly Recommended submitted by sushai on July 3, 2020, 9:53pm Every single story pulled me in within the first page or two. Some common themes thread through these stories and the two books of hers I've already read (Americanah and Half a Yellow Sun) regarding the experiences of Nigerian women in Nigeria and sometimes in the U.S. Looking forward to reading her book about feminism.
