Lola Shoneyin: September featured author

[Marieke]

I dropped the ball in September. so sorry! from a randomly generated list, Lola Shoneyin will be our September pick, which will require going back in time...just kidding. We have actually read The Secret Lives of Baba Segi's Wives for this group twice, and I would love to hear from others who have read her other work. I will come back with some good biographical info and a bibliography.

Aha! I've ordered that book now since it was on my list and we're featuring her :-)
