Description: "The Forest Dames is a pulsating story about the devastating effects of war, in which AdaOkere Agbasimalo dwells on the sordid consequences of civil war on humanity and the tortuous effort to achieve normalcy. It features Deze, a young girl with a keen mind, who lived with her parents in a typical African setting  and felt the pain of war. As an adulthood, the memories remain intact, haunting her."--Page 4 of cover.
