A Thousand Ways To Dawn

[Short stories, 2025]

A unique collection of stories mostly written in the first and second person narrative linked by love, pain, grief, sacrifice and the undaunted certainty of hope. A Thousand Ways to Dawn is a collection of eight stories which unveils how pain can rip people as they trace the rays, crawling slowly to any glimpse of hope. From Ekom’s loss of family and brotherhood to Voke’s unexpected struggles in marriage, the stories evoke emotions of sadness, the kind that soothes while it settles in. It is truly a reflection of our common yet not so common everyday life…an authentically Nigerian piece.
