What My Father Owed Me

What My Father Owed Me — A Novel by Obinna Joseph

He left when she was nine. He returned eighteen years later. And he was dying.

Kamsi Okonkwo was nine years old when her father, Chidi, left for China and never came back. What followed was a childhood stolen — her mother working herself to the bone at a tailoring shop, her younger brother falling into the streets of Aba.

Then, on a Tuesday evening, eighteen years later, Chidi Okonkwo knocks on her door. He's older, thinner, carrying a devastating secret about why he really left. He's dying — his kidneys failing — and he's come home to tell the truth.

From the crowded markets of Aba to the painful doorstep of forgiveness, WHAT MY FATHER OWED ME is a powerful Nigerian story about abandonment, survival, and whether six months of honesty can make up for eighteen years of silence.
