CAGEWORK

CageWork is a daring collection of stories that confront the intimate confines and moral landscapes faced by Northern Nigerian women. Maymunah Kadiri fearlessly navigates themes often left unspoken, from a sister grappling with the mystery of madness following a seemingly perfect marriage, to a husband struggling with infertility, and a woman caught in the liberating, yet guilt-ridden, passion of an extramarital affair. These narratives explore the rebellion inherent in female desire and the difficult choices women make when seeking freedom, intimacy, and a voice beyond the cages of expectation and silence.
