Description
"Changes" explores the complex world in which the lives of professional working women have changed sharply, but the cultural assumptions of men's lives have not. Witty and compelling, Aidoo's novel, according to Manthia Diawara, "inaugurates a new realist style in African literature."
"Aidoo writes with intense power in a novel that, in examining the role of women in modern African society, also sheds light on women's problems around the globe."--"Publishers Weekly" (starred review)

Ama Ata Aidoo, one of Ghana's most distinguished writers, is the author of two other works of fiction, "Our Sister Killjoy" and "No Sweetness Here" (The Feminist Press), as well as plays, poems, and children's books. "Tuzyline Jita" Allan is associate professor of English at Baruch College, CUNY.
