Hepzibah Anderson, Observer
'An intoxicating story that is at once distinctively feminine, African and universal.'

The Guardian
"Perceptive characterisation and an evocative portrayal of a fast-changing country, mark this Orange-shortlisted novel out from the crowd."

The Times
'It's a mature coming-of-age story, and an engrossing portrait of Nigerian society.'
