There's a lot of very good African-base fiction around at the moment - it's become a bit like the new India in fiction terms. For more great characters and some of the same issues, particularly those arising from multiple wives, then [[ The Secret Lives of Baba Segi's Wives by Lola Shoneyin]] is an absolute joy.
