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. The book features Deze,  a young girl with a keen mind, who lived with her parents in a typical African setting and observed the Biafran war between the late 60s and early 1970. Upon adulthood, the memories remain intact, haunting her." -- Back cover.
