A provocative novel dissecting the issues of marriage and African identity, featuring a cast of finely drawn characters. It's the story of Solomon Wilberforce, a successful and loveable children's book author who writes under the pseudonym of Beento Blackbird. Solomon also happens to be polygamous; he spends his winters in the Caribbean with his first wife, and summers in Ghana with his second wife. Everything's fine until he's forced to de-compartmentalize his life.
