Ada begins her life in the south of Nigeria as a troubled baby and a source of deep concern to her family. Her parents, Saul and Saachi, successfully prayed her into existence, but as she grows into a volatile and splintered child, it becomes clear that something went terribly awry. When Ada comes of age and moves to America for college, the group of selves within her grows in power and agency. A traumatic assault leads to a crystallization of her alternate selves: Asghara and Saint Vincent. As Ada fades into the background of her own mind and these selves, now protective, now hedonistic, move into control, Ada's life spirals in a dark and dangerous direction. 650 4 $a Books on compact disc, Unabridged. 650 0 $a Women $z Nigeria $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Identity (Psychology) $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Dissociative disorders $v Fiction. 941 $a 3 945 $a cdab 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20220909051916.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20210529010507.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20181006114612.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=082F78A41C5511E89CD6245A97128E48 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
