The Shrinking Bowl
Young girls in Ghana confront a challenging socio-economic environment. This novel is the story of one such girl’s life-journey, from childhood to middle-age, and the lessons of this journey. It is a sequel to the author’s first novel, Journey.
“A delightful lifeworld weighted with history and almost untouched in African fiction…a world whose veneer of simplicity belies its tangled dark underbelly.

Yitah, Dean, School of Languages, University of Ghana (UG) and Honourary Secretary, Ghana Academy of Arts and Sciences; former Head, Department of English, UG

Maame
In Aakonu, a small village on the coast of Ghana, life is a constant tussle between the reality of the mundane and the superstitions presided over by the local priestess. In this setup, girls in their puberty can only look forward to marriage—often to men old enough to be their fathers and already with other wives. Ahu, a young widow of eighteen, has no choice but to marry an older relative. What she does will change girls in her lineage forever. Through these beautifully told, lyrical stories about herself, her daughter Bomo, the beautiful but tragic Ebela, and the childless Aso, and others, Ahu introduces us to her community, and the beliefs and customs that keep its families together but in the end also stifles its girls futures.

Aluta Insomnia
This book of reflections is about a Ghana boy who travels within his country and around the world, sharing the anecdotes graciously. Whether it is a visit to see the US President at the White House or a trip to an Ada village called Totimehkope, each story is down a memory lane that is paved with nuggets of wisdom. The work showcases the beauty of being alive to the moral and developmental happenings around us. The author’s capacity to smell and milk story ideas from the most mundane scenario is remarkable.
A neurosurgeon by profession, his words cut and heal clinically in equal measure. Page after page, he operates as in the theatre − precise, penetrating, productive. If you love the brilliance of Ernest Hemingway and Ayi Kwei Armah, you will never stop reading Teddy Totimeh.
Sometimes, you do not know what you did right to be rewarded with a priceless gem. Aluta Insomnia is one such gift!

ADZE
Where secrets run deep and power takes on terrifying forms, survival demands more than courage.
Beneath the surface of Accra lies The Facility – a concealed prison and research centre where extraordinary beings known as adze are held captive. Born with supernatural gifts linked to ancient African deities, they are stripped of their freedom and subjected to cruel experiments, all under the iron grip of a secret society shrouded in shadow.
Selase has spent most of her life within The Facility’s cold, unrelenting walls, enduring a reality she cannot escape. But when a chain of mysterious events begin to unravel the fragile order, Secrets long buried come to light, and Selaseis thrust into a dangerous game that will challenge her identity, her powers, and her will to survive.
With every revelation, the lines between ally and enemy blur, and the cost of freedom becomes increasingly steep. As the chaos builds, Selase must face the truth – about The Facility, about The Order and about herself.
ADZE is a mesmerizing tale of resilience, power, and mystery, where the chaos of African mythology blend seamlessly with the dark intrigue of a world built on control. Who will rise, and who will fall, when the balance tips?₵70.00ADZE
