A very interesting book. I read it as part of the Across Time and Space Challenge on Storygraph that encourages to read books from different decades and different countries. It just confirms my belief that even while so many customs are alien to me, so many similarities persist, nonetheless. Perhaps rural Africa is more similar than one realises to rural India. Except for a few snippets of explicit language (personal preference for a family-friendly read, that's all), I enjoyed the author's style of writing. She truly transports the reader into the life of Baba Segi. Glad I picked up this book.
