When Baba Segi awoke with a bellyache for the sixth day in a row, he knew it was time to do something drastic about his fourth wife's childlessness. To the dismay of her ambitious mother, Bolanle marries into a polygamous family, where she is the fourth wife of a rich, rotund patriarch, Baba Segi. She is a graduate and therefore a great prize, but even graduates must produce children, and her husband's persistent bellyache is a sign that things are not as they should be.

She only wants to escape to a quiet life, but the others disapprove of the newest, youngest, cleverest addition to the family. Treated with respect by her husband, she is viewed with suspicion by her seniors - who fear she may unlock their well-guarded secret.

Through the voices of Baba Segi and his four wives, Lola Shoneyin weaves a vibrant story of love, secrets and a family like every other - happy and unhappy, truthful and not, sometimes kind, sometimes competitive, always bound by blood and the past.

Firstly, I love African stories (I’m a bit biased, I’m a child of the soil). This is set in Nigeria, A man and his 4 wives and a big family secret. The secret is predictable from the very beginning (They could have done a better job concealing this to the reader, would have been a nice reveal), but the story is good and not as predictable. The ending is tragic but satisfying. Narrator was good also, I enjoyed her voice.

Nicely weaved family story

The story is both solemn and humorous. It also bears the reality of polygamous households, traditional roles and taboos.
