Press Release: The Price of Ignorance.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

The Price of Ignorance

Press Release – July 3, 2013 – Delaware Author releases The Price of Ignorance, a literary fiction/romance novel that deals with the issues of ignorance among young adults.

The Price of Ignorance is the story of suave, young urban professionals who pay dearly for failing to know the difference between having fun and living recklessly. It’s a tale of friendship, love, recklessness and betrayal. And it’s a lesson in forgiveness.

In the book:

There is Ignorance…

• A randy player does not know it takes just one ignorant act to mess up an entire life.

• A teenager misconstrues her placement on birth control for license to embark on a sexual rampage.

• A young woman reacts nonchalantly to the news that she has contracted a sexually transmitted disease. But unknown to her, she has unwittingly laid the foundation for a future filled with despair, anguish and frustrations.

And

The Price…

• The player of yesterday has since married a wonderful lady and has a flourishing career. But what happens to upset his perfectly-laid apple cart? 

• The then teenage girl is now a grown, accomplished professional. But how far will she go to avoid being caught up by her ignorant past?

• In spite of her past atrocity, the STD-infected young woman now finds solace behind the façade of a born-again Christianity. But will the new faith protect her from self-inflicted physical and emotional scars?

Coming Soon.

The transformation of a writing project from a manuscript into a published book is similar to a pregnant woman having a baby. The immediate hours after the painstakingly-written book “pops out”, the author begins to experience a sense of relief, exhilaration and excitement. With the exception of the throbbing in the head, just like the type usually felt by women between their legs shortly after a baby is born, a feel of euphoria suddenly descends on the author.

This is precisely what and how I feel right now.

A couple of hours ago, I was informed that my book, The Price of Ignorance will be available for sale in about 5 days.

An African literature set in Nigeria, the most populous black nation on earth; The Price of Ignorance is the story of suave, young urban professionals who pay dearly for failing to know the difference between having fun and living recklessly. It’s a tale of friendship, love, recklessness and betrayal. And it’s a lesson in forgiveness.

And unlike most books that fall under the rubric of African literature, The Price of Ignorance presents a total picture of an African society with emphasis on celebrating the dynamic cultures, awesome traditions, values and love for education in spite of our human foibles.
