Nervous Conditions

    Nervous Conditions was captivating during chapters 6 and 7. The reason why is, in chapter 6 you go into Nyasha rebellion a little more. As Babamakuru would say Nyasha is not becoming a normal african women, but that she is considered a "whore". My personal opinion is, I was sort of disturb that a father would say those things about his daughter, and he hit her across the face, and say that she wanted her dead. The thing is we would not know if that was the usual in third world countries, the reason for that is we live in a first world country. 
   In chapter 7 we were introduced to two new characters Lucia, and Takesure. Whenever a woman marries a man in africa the women is inducted as i would say into the mans family. In this situation Lucia has stayed with her original family. Babamakuru thinks if they stay it will curse the family. As the chapter goes on Takesure says that Lucia needs to be outsmarted and she is a witch. It is interesting because Takesure has en-pregnanted Lucia. Also, another huge thing is pointed out is Tambu's mother treats Maiguru with complete disrespect, and she hates her for "killing" Nhamo.
