Jonathan Ball Publishers and The Cheeky Natives invite you to the virtual launch of Dear Senthuran: A Black Spirit Memoir by Akwaeke Emezi.

In three critically acclaimed novels, Akwaeke Emezi has introduced readers to a landscape marked by familial tensions, Igbo belief systems, and a boundless search for what it means to be free. Now, in this extraordinary memoir, the bestselling author reveals the harrowing yet resolute truths of their own life.

Electrifying and inspiring, animated by the same voracious intelligence that distinguishes their fiction, Dear Senthuran is a revelatory account of storytelling, self, and survival.

The event will be streamed live The Cheeky Natives’s Facebook, YouTube and Twitter.

‘I’m not interested in resilience, but in how to move through this world with reciprocal tenderness … with people interested in the same thing.’ – Akwaeke Emezi
