Cassava Republic authors, Lola Shoneyin award winning poet and author of the critically acclaimed novel, The Secret Lives of Baba Segi’s Wives will be in conversation with Toni Kan, award winning author of Nights of the Creaking Bed and Editor of the Sunday Sun Revue.
The two will be engaging with the topic ‘Writing Sex, Sexuality and morality’ with emphasis on Lola Shoneyin’s book which focuses on a polygamous household which implodes when the youngest wife’s search for a child exposes a terrible secret.
The Secret Lives of Baba Segi’s Wives also riffs slightly on same sex relationships which has become a very topical issue in the wake of the Same Sex Marriage prohibition act.
The evening which holds on Saturday February 15, 2014 at Terra Kulture promises to be a fitting finale to the Valentine season with two writers who are sassy, saucy and very iconoclastic.
