Description

In this powerful debut novel, a young Nigerian couple's desperate desire for a child unravels a tapestry of secrets, lies, and devastating betrayals. As infertility casts a long shadow over their marriage, they are pushed to the brink, forced to confront the painful choices that threaten to tear them apart. Ayobami Adebayo masterfully explores themes of love, sacrifice, and the enduring strength of the human spirit against a backdrop of cultural expectations and personal anguish. This is a story that will linger long after the final page, a profound examination of what it means to build a family and hold onto hope in the face of unimaginable loss.
