South End Branch African and African American Authors Book Discussion via Zoom: The Sun Sets in Singapore by Kehinde Fadipe

The Sun Sets in Singapore by Kehinde Fadipe

Singapore is a rich country of contrasts, and it’s become the home of three very different Black Nigerian women. Dara is a workaholic intent on making partner at the law firm where she works. Her best friend is Amaka, a somewhat caustic woman with a good job, a doting boyfriend and a recent inheritance. But she keeps everyone at arm’s length and instead indulges her shopping addiction. Lillian is new to them, though she’s been here for three years with her husband. They’ve spent just as long trying to have a baby, but it’s not working, and Lillian’s mental health has taken a turn for the worse. All three women are affected in major but completely different ways when a Nigerian man, Lani, arrives in Singapore.
