Finding Home: Notes from a Life Rebuilt - A Memoir

Everyone thinks they know her.

The accent, the composure, the rooms she walks into like she belongs. What they cannot see is the question she has carried since she was four: where, exactly, is home?

From an Igbo village compound to a boarding house, from a cancelled wedding to a marriage that ended, from Lagos to Scotland with a thousand pounds and no mapped plan. Onyinye lost her mother, her marriage and her business in the same season, left her children behind until she could send for them, and built a whole life again from nothing.

Finding Home is honest about the hard parts and genuinely funny about the rest, because that is how we survive things.

Every chapter opens with an Igbo proverb it goes on to earn.

If you have ever japa'd, started over, or wondered whether you would ever feel at home anywhere, this one is for you.
