NFUDU - Skirts Ties & Taboos by Oby Aligwekwe, Publisher EclatBooksCa

Nfudu: Skirts, Ties & Taboos

Soon after arriving in Paris in 1963, Nfudu launches a heart-rending secret affair with her best friend’s attractive father – Javier. But, her father rejects Javier because of his race. When she meets Ikechi – a striking London financier, Nfudu’s bond with Javier is tested. Ikechi seems like the perfect match, but a grim revelation about his ‘caste’ forces Nfudu’s father to defend his honor.

In this debut novel, the author intricately weaves plots of love, war, crime, hatred, ancient taboos, and a clash of civilizations, then merges these into one powerful story.

What People Say

A Beautiful, Nuanced Love Story

…This is a story of courage and trying to find your voice in spaces where your voice may often be tuned off/down and never amplified enough for what you truly want, need and desire. I found myself rooting for the main character. She is any girl, past, present and future. She sought to find/embrace her voice, make her own mistakes and also rise from them, on her own terms…

“Nfudu” takes you on a journey across continents, captivating and immersing you in the lives of the characters. The book left me at the edge of my seat until the very last page. It expertly and intricately explores the connection between these characters and masterfully delivers a story infused with love, betrayal and its clash with cultures. A must read for anyone that loves a great book!

Captivating

Nfudu is a very good read. It is well written and resonates with one who comes from a familiar background.Tells of the struggles faced by inter-racial and inter generational relationships in the sixties. It captivated me. A real page turner. Cannot wait for another book from this author.
