Here is the blurb:
In Dependence, is Sarah's first novel. The story begins in the early 1960s when Tayo Ajayi meets Vanessa Richardson, the beautiful daughter of an ex-colonial officer. Their story, which spans three continents and four turbulent decades, is that of a brave but bittersweet love affair. It is the story of individuals struggling to find their place within uncertain political times – a story of passion and idealism, courage and betrayal, and the universal desire to fall madly, deeply, in love.

Dr. Ladipo's new novel appears rather ambitious and compelling. I can sense feelings, painful, diverse and very complex. I am thinking of emotions folded into something new. It must be interesting. Can't wait!
I hope it fits comfortably in the mind.
Congrats to Sarah! way to go! and I look forward to reading...
The blurb sounds too cheesy. (insert vomiting sound here).
