When I was in primary school, my maternal grandmother would take me book shopping whenever I got good grades and this quickly became a treat I looked forward to at the end of each term. Some of my early favorites were Enid Blyton\u2019s <em>Malory Towers<\/em> series and Jacqueline Wilson\u2019s range of children\u2019s books.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>What was your journey to publication and have you always written?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve been writing informally since I was 7 years old. I would write and illustrate stories for my classmates to read and I wish I had kept the exercise books I wrote in! I have a good laugh when I read some of my teenage journals now and I imagine I would feel the same way about my earliest novels. My formal journey to publication began in 2020 when I started the Faber Academy Writing a Novel course. The course was the first time I had taken my writing seriously and it really taught me how to hone my skills. I also wrote most of <a href=\"https:\/\/suffolk.spydus.co.uk\/cgi-bin\/spydus.exe\/ENQ\/WPAC\/BIBENQ?SETLVL=&amp;BRN=3574863\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>The Parlour Wife<\/em><\/a> during the Faber course and being able to receive objective reviews from my coursemates on the story as it developed was invaluable.<\/p>\n<p>After completing the Faber course and my novel, I got my agent at the beginning of 2022 and my book deal later that year. Writing has always been a part of my life and publishing a novel was something I hoped would happen one day, so I\u2019m immensely grateful that it\u2019s happening for me now.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>The impact of WWII on Nigerian people is not something I was aware of. Was there much information to help your research?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Despite this not being a popular topic in history, there is a lot of information on the impact of WWII on Nigerian people. The information I found was in many different places \u2013 my grandparents first hand accounts of their childhood, online journals, documentaries on Netflix and YouTube and books in the British Library to name a few. I\u2019ve included a bibliography at the end of The Parlour Wife for anyone who is interested in learning more about the impact of WWII on Nigerian people.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Can you tell us a little about your new book <a href=\"https:\/\/suffolk.spydus.co.uk\/cgi-bin\/spydus.exe\/ENQ\/WPAC\/BIBENQ?SETLVL=&amp;BRN=3574863\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em><strong>The Parlour Wife<\/strong><\/em><\/a>?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>\u200dThe Parlour Wife<\/em> is a novel about finding self fulfilment, and is set in 1940s colonial Lagos, during WWII, where Kehinde, my protagonist has to challenge societal norms to get the empowerment she needs to discover her purpose.<\/p>\n<p>The idea of <em>The Parlour Wife<\/em> came to me during a conversation with my paternal grandmother in 2019 when I found out that she grew up in a polygamous home in the same time period. Given that Nigeria was part of the British Empire during the war, as we spoke that day, I wondered why I had heard and read so little about the lives of Nigerian women at that point in history. As Kehinde\u2019s story started to form in my mind, I knew I had the beginning of something special.<\/p>\n<p>Even though I wanted to write a book about that period in time, I didn\u2019t want another book about world war two because there are already so many books, movies and documentaries about the war itself. I also didn\u2019t want to inadvertently write a history text book! I wanted to present a perspective of how the war affected Nigerian lives, the same way global events affect our stories and decision making today in an entertaining way. Although my characters are completely fictional, my hope is that The Parlour Wife sheds light on a time in Nigeria\u2019s history that has received limited international coverage.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Kehinde is a very strong character. Was she based on anyone?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Kehinde is a fictional character but I wanted to depict the journey that any young woman would have to undertake in becoming empowered, from the starting point of uncertainty to the end goal of self fulfilment. Kehinde is an amalgamation of the softest and strongest traits that I\u2019ve seen in myself and the women I know, especially at moments in all our lives where we have had to make difficult choices in the quest to fulfil our goals.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>I&#8217;m sure <em>The Parlour Wife<\/em> is going to be a book group favourite. What is the main message you would like your readers to take away when they read it?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I want readers to understand that a fulfilling life cannot be obtained without being empowered to make life changing decisions. Sometimes, gaining that empowerment can be uncomfortable, and remaining resilient in the face of whatever the world throws at you will not always be easy, but even the most seemingly insurmountable challenges can be overcome with willpower and the help of a strong community.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>What&#8217;s next for you?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>More novels! I\u2019ve finished writing my second book which is contemporary fiction, set in Lagos post COVID. Now I\u2019m working on my third book which is also set in Lagos between the early 2000\u2019s and present day.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>We&#8217;re always looking for book recommendations.
