Description
Set against the shifting social and political landscape of Lagos in the 1970s and 1980s, this coming-of-age novel follows Enitan and Sheri as their lives unfold through friendship, ambition, and hard-won self-knowledge. As they navigate family expectations, gendered power, and the pressures of a postcolonial nation, Enitan’s story becomes a moving portrait of what it means to grow into one’s own voice. Written with lyrical clarity and incisive psychological insight, the book explores themes of identity, resilience, and the quiet negotiations women make to survive—and to choose. With its award-winning literary force and distinctive, humane storytelling, it offers a wise, intimate look at love, loyalty, and the promise of change.
