The Other Wife
Price range: $3.99 through $15.99Janice Bordeaux is an American woman from New Orleans, who lives and works in Chicago. WANDA ARRINGTON AKOREDE Janice and her cousin Melinda share an apartment. They are both young and ready for love and marriage. Janice finds her true love when she meets a Nigerian name Olufemi (Femi) Adegoke, who is completing his Ph.D. at the University of Chicago. Janice is employed at the University as an Administrative Assistant. They meet at an Africa party and romance blossoms. They become engaged and get married despite their cultural differences. Olufemi is from an upper class Nigerian family. He has lots of money and takes Janice on an extended honeymoon in Europe. They plan to settle in Nigeria afterwards. It is upon their arrival in Nigeria, that the other side of Femi is revealed. He kept from her the fact that he was already married. You see in their culture, it is legal to have more than one wife. But for Janice, this was culture shock! Devastated and distraught, Janice tries to live in their culture, rather than return home. Her love for Femi is very strong and she hopes that one day he will come to his senses and see that she is all the woman that he needs. But being faced with a very strong and male dominated country and living in a strange and sometimes overwhelming country, she finds it difficult to deal with her husband’s infidelity. She feels cheated. He should have told her about his other wife, and she
would never have married him. Omolola (Lola) is Oulfemi’s Nigerian wife. She waits two long years for him to complete his education and return home to her. She had not bargained on him marrying an American woman and bringing her home. She had planned to have a family and enjoy the fruits of his success upon his return to Nigeria. Instead she was forced to share him with Janice. Omolola knew that her husband has taken another wife before they arrived in Nigeria. It was part of their culture for a man to have more than one wife. Several of her relatives were actively living in polygamy. They tried to live together, each woman sharing their husband equally. But Lola was not satisfied with their arrangement and schemes to have Olufemi to herself. She uses any means at her disposal including juju (witchcraft). While Janice who is innocent in this is losing the battle to maintain her marriage. Consequently, Janice catches Olufemi and Lola in bed together and decides that she had had enough of their culture and polygamy and leaves for America. But she takes with her their unborn child; she is several months pregnant. So the tie is binding. -

In The Chaotic Murmur of an Unclear Destiny
Price range: $3.99 through $15.99This is a book of deep love, devotion, and respect for the author’s late wife of the author, and it can also be seen as a guide and practice for overcoming difficult situations in life. Exploring his inner self, especially the unconscious part, the author talks about emotional reactions in the modern, alienated world. Improvising his imagination, he talks about a microcosm, which can be anywhere, in which there are long-standing injustices that need to be dealt with. How?
Please read it, and protect yourself with knowledge, it will certainly not lead you astray and accept everything that life puts in front of you, be ready, and understand all sorrows, difficulties, and injustices as a game that you solve, so that you, not others, set limits for yourself. – Marina Denadic
Željko Vujovic seems to be moving in a silent sailing ship not far along the mainland and observes everything on the shore… He looks precisely at the long past time and presents it to the reader as if it happened now. Sometimes that coolheaded composure gives way to a slightly emotional subjective assessment. Then the character of the Anemic Director appeared who was “appointed to that position by the Hepatobiliary Surgeon who applies the knowledge of hepatobiliary surgery in the politics of the Microcosm, and the Hepatobiliary Surgeon was appointed to the position by the Tall Man Who Sees High Above the Microcosm.” That emotional assessment is contained in a mild edge of irony which only reinforces the image of society that we survived a long time ago…
Željko is the treasure of many generations before him… Sometimes he breaks into a biting caricature: The Running Pissing Man, but, that is a testimony of the times we lived in, maybe we forgot and it comes back to us again and again: bad students raise respectable professors. And those respectable “beat the stone” on Naked Island. “Why? For nothing.” Answers a stout old woman, carrying on her mare a full “carload” of grapes and figs, which she picked with her own hands and laboriously and intended for her son, daughter-in-law, and grandchildren, pointing with her head to the house of Blažo Jovanovic, who, at that time, was cheering and dressing in Montenegro. – Dragan Perišic

The Spare: Part 1
Price range: $3.99 through $15.99I was born and raised on a working ranch twenty-eight miles north of Philip, South Dakota. As a young person, we worked hard and played hard, and events that occurred caused considerable pain to me both mentally and physically. My choices were not the best, and at seventeen, I was much on my own. The saying “I was the only hell my mother ever raised” was probably very accurate. I write this to tell what it was like growing up and to let others know their choices are important to their future.
