About the Book

Her Unspoken Struggles...

Geraldine is a memoir, the unspoken struggles of an African woman with an embattled childhood, traumatized adolescence and a tumultuous marital life, which clearly shows the interconnected wrong choices made out of a quest for survival - a common pattern in our society.


There was no curse, just a passionate plea for shared affection, kindness, and honour, which was swallowed by the harsh demands, stereotypes and limiting standards in the society. Every child has the right to emotional stability, and their actions should not be judged based on unfounded stereotypes. With this conviction, they will undoubtedly be able to harness the infinite potential that lies within them for the greater good.

This book is a Woman's Journey to Self-Discovery and here, the author takes you on a poignant journey through her life, a life marked by rejection, societal pressures, and the weight of outdated traditions. From her early years, she felt like an outcast, burdened by a perceived curse that cast a shadow over her family's name.

Growing up in a community where women were expected to play specific roles, she navigated a world where her dreams and ambitions were stifled. Yet, she refused to be defined by these limitations. She yearned for acceptance, love, and freedom from the curse that seemed to haunt her lineage.

With determination and Proverbs 31 as her guide, she embarked on a quest to find a good husband, believing that this was her path to redemption. But fate had other plans. She married into a world where her worth was constantly questioned, and her dreams were overshadowed by societal and religious expectations.

In her struggle to break free from the chains of tradition, she sought solace in education, self-discovery, and personal growth. With each page, she unveils the profound realization that the curse she sought to escape was not of her making. It was a false narrative imposed by a society that failed to understand the root causes of failed marriages.

Through her compelling narrative, the author challenges the deeply ingrained gender roles and expectations in her community. She sheds light on the plight of the girl child, burdened with chores and responsibilities, while her male counterparts are allowed to roam free.

"Geraldine" is a powerful call to action, urging us to rethink our beliefs and values. It challenges us to question why women are expected to endure abuse and oppression in the name of marriage and societal approval.

As she shares her life's journey, the author provides invaluable insights and empowerment to women and girls who have been unfairly labeled as 'cursed.' This book is a beacon of hope, encouraging them to reject harmful beliefs and embrace their true selves. It's a testament to the enduring strength of the human spirit and the power of knowledge to break free from the shackles of tradition.

This book is not just a memoir; it's a transformative guide that will inspire you to live your life to the fullest and empower the generations to come. Join the author as she dismantles the myths and misconceptions that have held women captive for far too long.

"Geraldine" is a must-read for anyone seeking to challenge societal norms, break free from oppression, and discover their true worth. It's a story of resilience, empowerment, and the triumph of the human spirit over adversity.

I have written this book to let you know that you can reject harmful, outdated beliefs that have held you or anyone you know, captive. Thrive and live your life to the fullest!
