complexity of women's relationships. It reveals the
joys and sorrows, the conflicts, the paradoxes, and
the different challenges facing women's bonding. The
book reveals women's attempt to form bonds to fight
back the impact of patriarchal structures that keep
them oppressed. This aspect of women's lives is
apparent in both Toni Morrison's novels: Sula and
Love, Mariama Ba's So Long a Letter, and Sefi Atta's
Everything Good Will Come. Despite the different
geographical settings, all these novels link the
failure of female friendship to patriarchal
institutions that interfere with women's
relationships and break them down. The book shows
the healing power of female friendship that helps
women recover from the destructive force of
patriarchy. Female bonding helps these female
characters face racial prejudice, polygamy, war,
political instability, and the contraints of
tradition.
