A Woman In Her Prime
![A Man Who Is Not A Man]()
In a small Ghanaian village of Brenhoma, Pokuwaa, though a woman has become a successful farmer. True happiness eludes her, to have reached middle age without children is considered a grave misfortune. She has felt compelled to divorce her first two husbands. Finally, she married Kwadwo, who grew to love her and her charm, her sympathy and her sweet conversation. As the years pass, Pokuwaa's prayers and sacrifices to the great god Tano are still unanswered, and her mother's obsession with childbearing and her nagging intrusion would be unbearable for a woman less compared and mature.
Finally, she rejects her mother’s interference and recourse charms, drugs and sacrifices to ensure a successful pregnancy, and achieves fulfillment and new happiness on her own terms.
