Also, Ramatoulaye makes a choice to be a single woman that will do anything for her children and doesn't want to be with a man like Daouda who might be rich, but has a wife already.2. Woman Unity: It seems in the novel the woman are judgmental and separate themselves from each other because they are afraid of being a replaced by a younger wife.
