A novel about marriage, motherhood and the devastating cost of silence, set in contemporary Zambia. Sali, a working mother of three, is on trial for the murder of her husband. Accused of shooting him after a fight in their bedroom, she pleads not guilty. But her story begins fourteen years earlier with a different kind of violence - the pressure to conform, to endure, to 'shipikisha' “In The Shipikisha Club, Kalimamukwento creates an unflinching account of the myriad forms of intimate violence and betrayal within a patriarchal system, interspersed with moments of startling tenderness. She rejects moral certitude, instead pulling us into the minds of messy, complex women attempting to survive and connect in an unjust world. Kalimamukwento vividly renders the daily indignities of familial spaces with perfectly calibrated prose, every word uncompromising and honest, until the emotional and physical geography of these homes are seared into our brains.”Sarah Yahm, author of Unfinished Acts of Wild Creation
