Book Description:
Afi Tekple’s mother talks her into marrying Elikem, a wealthy businessman. Elikem’s mother has chosen Afi in the hopes that she will distract him from his relationship with a woman his family claims is inappropriate. Afi is not prepared for the shift her life takes when she is moved from her small hometown of Ho to live in Accra, Ghana’s gleaming capital, a place of wealth and sophistication where she has days of nothing to do but cook meals for a man who may or may not show up to eat them. Nevertheless, she must see this marriage through. Or not.
