Beneath this thick skin - Paperback

by Nyasha Melissa Chiyanike (Author)

What happens when the warm flame of hope is snuffed out by the harsh realities of life, and one is left in the stark darkness of uncertainty? What moral threads are broken when one is driven to the very limits of desperation, and nothing is left but their instinct to survive? What is left when our scars are exposed and the deepest, darkest parts of our beings are brought to the surface under the glaring light? In her debut short story collection, Nyasha Melissa Chiyanike invites the reader to ponder such questions as she peels back the layers of her characters, summoning us to witness their journeys and transformations. Filled with intrigue and unpredictable at every turn, each story is gripping and shocking as she ventures to the very edges of human complexity, desire and determination.
