At the dusk of her life, Anna is cared for by her daughter, Abi--a reversal of roles which draws mother and daughter closer and opens a window into their lives. Opening with the memories of the dying protagonist, Days Come and Go is the exciting story of three Cameroonian women from three generations: a young Anna who, allured by Western education, finds herself in the midst of a conflict between modernity and tradition; Abi, the journalist, whose liberating idyll with a married artist plunges her tepid family life into turmoil; and Tina, Anna's young neighbour in Douala, who falls into the clutches of Islamists.

The fates of the women in this novel span--and inevitably intertwine with--the history of Cameroon, from pre-colonial and colonial times through the independence movements to the contemporary terror of Boko Haram.
