I can still comment on this post. :) When you can say on a train in Chicago that nothing else existed a village and its villagers in Africa, that is quite a statement.

I read the book within a week as well and loved it! It made me laugh, cry and most of all THINK. To think of how much easier we have it here in the western world as women, to think of how similar our goals and dreams are as women despite the cultural and geographical differences, and to think of all that we can do as women if we work together is unbelievable. This book just made me want to get up and just do SOMETHING! I LOVED It and so did all the women in my bookclub. I highly recomend this book.
