Book excerpt: In If they Tell the Story, Azuka fights for her soul, in a society that raised her to find her worth in a marriage and motherhood. In this deeply moving story, she loses everything and as she is about to lose herself to it all, she finds herself again, in the strangest of ways. Set partly in rural Eastern Nigeria and urban Lagos, the story shows how traditions hardly change even in cities, how despite the evolution of roles in the society, women are still expected to stoop to conquer. When they choose not to be a stoop again, they have to pay the price - estrangement, emotional blackmail, physical abuse, and more.This is a story of how shackling deep-seated beliefs are passed down, from one generation to another. Azuka soon learns that the job of unshackling oneself brings pain, attracts attention, yet, it has to be done. It is the story of a woman who dares to question beliefs and the price she pays for daring.
