"Changes" explores the complex world in which the lives of
professional working women have changed sharply, but the cultural
assumptions of men's lives have not. Witty and compelling, Aidoo's
novel, according to Manthia Diawara, "inaugurates a new realist
style in African literature."
"Aidoo writes with intense power in a novel that, in examining the
role of women in modern African society, also sheds light on
women's problems around the globe."--"Publishers Weekly" (starred
review)
