Ofunne lives in a society that defines her status through marriage and children; nevertheless, she dreams of building a career for herself. Once in school, her high-spiritedness leads her to constant trouble, but she excels as a student. She is, however, taken out of school to marry a man of her parents' dream, but all is not as it seems when she soon discovers that her husband is less than ideal. Caught in a whirlpool where the proclivity would be to succumb, she finds her way out of the maze. In a world where there are no choices, Ofunne refuses to be a tragic victim; her story becomes an indictment of a culture and her victory gives us hope. This book bears a tale of innocence, of sadness, of sacrifice, and of victory in the face of sky-high obstacles.
