Please bid your donations to charity Room to Read and win a book:

The Secret Lives of Baba Segi’s Wives by Lola Shoneyin
Profile Books

Nigeria, 1999. To the dismay of her overbearingly ambitious mother, Bolanle marries into a polygamous family, where she is the fourth wife of a rich, rotund patriarch called Baba Segi. She is auniversity graduate and therefore a great prize, but evengraduates must bear children and her husband’s persistent bellyache is a sign that things are not as they should be. Bolanle is too educated for the ‘white garment conmen’ Baba Segi would usually go to for fertility advice, so he takes her to hospital to discover the cause of her barrenness.

Five highest bidders will win a copy.

Amazon UK price: £5.00

Starting price: US$2.00

Since there are 5 copies, I guess maybe it is OK to match the bids – what do you think Vlad? If so, I'll also add a $5 offer.

$5 from me, then.  My reading for the entire year is going to be sorted after this auction.
