Unconscious bias refers to attitudes that operate outside our awareness and control. It is our inclination for or against something or someone, especially in a way considered to be unfair.
The celebrated season of the Nigeria Prize for Literature always ends on the note of winner-takes-all. It is incumbent on me to plead now that the longlisted and shortlisted authors be also rewarded with cash.
Ndidi Enenmor exploring domestic violence in debut novel
On
By Prisca Sam-Duru
Issues revolving around widowhood, motherhood, and domestic violence which undermine womenfolk, like leeches, have regrettably become a part of the society. While individuals and advocacy groups are cutting their teeth daily in the quest for solutions, award-winning author of “One Little Mosquito”, and “A Hero’s Welcome”, which made the longlist of the Nigeria Prize For Literature 2019, Ndidi Chiazor-Enenmor, lends her support through the release of an astounding expose on the issues from an amazing novel perspective.
Titled “If They Tell The Story”, Chiazor-Enenmor’s debut novel was published in 2020 by Walnut Publishing Ltd, Lagos. The book, structured into three parts, thirty-nine chapters, and 299 pages, is a moving tale from an emerging master storyteller which will keep you from every other thing until the very last page is savoured.
