"The Fate of the Foetus" is about love, plans that do not work, rebellion against parental authority, intriguing choices and actions, search for freedom, attempts at aborting fates and fetuses, and how destinies are shaped by good intentions that go awfully wrong. It tells us the story of Sata and her quiet rebellion against her husband; it is the story of Wara and her hot tempered man, Yembeh; of Lamin, the journalist and the beautiful Maimuna who hatched a plan to get back at the men who hurt her; and of Koth Yaro and Mr. Sahr, two friends dedicated to the pleasures of the flesh. The novel is a multi-layered narrative that uses the mythical, the scientific, and sometimes uncomfortable words to narrate the everyday in the Cornalus - a community that is 'fluffy warm as wing-pit of mother-hen, raw as gushing life, tragic-funny as brief vain struggle of an ill-tied ill-slaughtered goat.'
