Eye of the Morning Funke Nnennaya Michaels

Told from the 'eyes' of ten characters, Eye of the Morning traces an African family's attempt to find a balance between the ancient and the modern ways of living. Surviving tribal war, betrayal, political turmoil and social violence, women of the matrilineal Adeoye clan align with traditions that have guided them for generations. With a chain of connected coincidences in different parts of the world, an unseen hand is using these women to reshape the destiny of an oil-rich Yoruba community.
