The Joys of Motherhood by Buchi Emecheta

5.0

I don’t even know where to start. I wanted to believe the title of the book until the last time. The story of Nnu Ego is one of the gut-wrenching one. Makes me really think that women, in any time, any world, can only be daughters, sisters, wives, and/or mothers. They can never be themselves. And that is okay. That is noble. Depends on how you see it.
