Of Deadbeats, Bastard Children and Pagan Wives
Author: Moses Atese
Of Deadbeats, Bastard Children and Pagan Wives is a bold anthology that gathers voices from across the continent to tell the stories that linger in silence—stories of shame, survival, rebellion, and reckoning. Here, forgotten children speak, abandoned women rise, and the ghosts of family and faith return with questions no one wants to answer. This collection peels back the layers of respectability to reveal what lies beneath: the chaos of love, the ache of rejection, the rage of the misunderstood, and the unexpected beauty in being seen at last. Each story crackles with emotional honesty, giving life to characters we know but rarely acknowledge. These are the truths whispered behind closed doors. These are the stories we dare not tell, but must.
