" A Virtuous Woman", a Novel by Kaye Gibbons
Nkosi came into the world under very perilous circumstances. The country of his birth was already undergoing a civil war between natives and the settlers. A measles epidemic was running havoc across the nation, killing hundreds of children.
As he grows into a man, he does not understand the complexities of women. He is rejected by many women he is interested in because they feel he does not compare to them. He feels unsettled, needy and searching for just one virtuous woman who he will love forever. Can he find the love of his life and be truly happy? Does she exist or is he only wishing?
