Ancestors Stone by Aminatta Forna

Four aunts hand down their life stories to a niece returning from London, mapping a century of an unnamed West African nation through its women. Abie returns from England to reclaim the family coffee plantation she's inherited, and as she walks the overgrown estate, her four aunts — each born to a different one of her grandfather's eleven wives — pour out the stories of their very different lives: one illiterate but fiercely independent, one Western-educated but trapped in an unhappy marriage, others shaped by loss, ambition, and quiet rebellion. Through their voices, Forna's debut novel maps an entire century of a country closely modeled on Sierra Leone, and it won her a Hurston/Wright Legacy Award.
