When Masechaba finally achieves her childhood dream of becoming a doctor, her ambition is tested as she faces the stark reality of South Africa's public healthcare system. As she leaves her deeply religious mother and makes friends with the politically-minded Nyasha, Masechaba's eyes are opened to the rising xenophobic tension that carries echoes of apartheid. Battling her inner demons, she must decide if she should take a stand to help her best friend, even it comes at a high personal cost. A powerfully insightful novel from 'South Africa's Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie' Bookseller, Evening Primrose explores issues of race, gender and the medical profession with tenderness and urgency.
