More about the book

Exploring the interplay between literature and life, this memoir recounts transformative experiences across Nigeria, France, and New York. The author reflects on pivotal moments, from a childhood music class to her teaching days in Nigeria, where novels like "Things Fall Apart" expose her to colonial legacies. As she grapples with her own marriage through the lens of literary heroines, she ultimately discovers the profound impact of reading on personal growth and friendship, culminating in a six-year journey of sharing Proust with a dear friend facing mortality.
