What Will My Mother Say Hardcover - 2004

by Dympna Ugwu-Oju


From the publisher

Dympna Ugwu-Oju is leading two lives. At work, she is a college professor. At home, she is an Ibo wife and mother.

With the perception of a novelist, Dympna Ugwu-Oju animates tribal African life by telling stories of three generations of remarkable Ibo women, one of whom made her mark in America.

This book is much more than an exploration of the issues facing women from developing countries. It is for everyone who has faced a personal conflict involving the heart and the soul.
