Reviews:
megdy (USA: TX) (2007/05/16): I really liked this book and am only willing to trade it because it was hard to get a copy of. The book deals with a lot of the big issues for modern African women, and the title comes from a quote about the condition of the native being a nervous one.
All in all it's a good book, worth a read both for the issues it relates the the humanity of the main characters. This is one of those books where even the characters you hate are realistic, and that makes their stupidity all the more gratting.
