Yejide is hoping for a miracle, for a child. It is all her husband wants, all her mother-in-law wants, and she has tried everything. But when her relatives insist upon a new wife, it is too much for Yejide to bear. Unravelling against the social and political turbulence of 1980s Nigeria, this is a story of the fragility of married love, the undoing of family, the power of grief, and the all-consuming bonds of motherhood. Shortlisted for 2017 Baileys Women's Prize for Fiction.
