About This Book
A mother's warning to her young daughter not to leave home . . . A question that changes a relationship in ways no one could have predicted . . . A silence that speaks more than words ever could . . . TheNakedConvos brings you an emotional, thought-provoking, inspiring and altogether fascinating invitation to exploration, honesty, vulnerability, connection, celebration of relationships, and self-discovery. Have you ever read a story that left you feeling naked, vulnerable and exposed? These Words Expose Us is an anthology of stories from young, award-winning Nigerian writers, including Uche Okonkwo, Pemi Aguda, Gbolahan Adeola, Osemhen Akhibi and many, many more. From Lagos to Benin, Ibadan to New York, these are our stories – the stories we never tell, the stories we suspect our neighbors live, the stories our friends and lovers are afraid to tell us. But they are only stories made of words. Just words. Even if These Words Expose Us.
