Three Ladies facing problems of spinsterhood, barrenness and body odour; suffer a common stigma of regression, violence and assault in an impatient society. The story projects African women as the gender that will go to the wildest forest in search of solutions to their problems. The problems faced by the ladies is a metaphor to the plight of Africans and a reminder that solutions are possible if they recognise their cultural identities, ancestral practices and values.
