Flaws of characters a main focus:
Yes
An exquisitely crafted portrait of four women. Encapsulated several of the most traumatic experiences women can go through in their lives. I struggle with the ending but respect the humanizing mission undertaken by Ngozi Adiche. Everyone should read the author’s note to better contextualize it.

A very hard read.
