“Angelina is caught between modernity and tradition. In consequence, she ends up with the worst of both worlds: marginalised by the traditional structure she has married into and undermined by the modernizing cultural practices she sees as opening the path to liberation. This is a great work of fiction from Ike Umejesi, with whom I have worked on different research projects both in Austria and in South Africa. It is highly recommended. “
