Summary
It’s 1972, and the most amazing white family fosters two-month-old Bas. She is the only black child in an all-white village in the UK, growing up surrounded by the unconditional love of her foster family. Suddenly her idyllic, carefree childhood is shattered when her birth parents decide to take her to Nigeria. Thrown into an alien and confusing world, eight-year-old Bas is renamed Toyin and has to adapt to survive her new life in West Africa. For the first time, Toyin is forced to cope with betrayal, family secrets and abuse. After sharing her personal insight into the effects of her childhood trauma, and her efforts to understand the mindset of her perpetrator, Toyin must ultimately learn to forgive, in order to continue her inspirational journey to recovery. A profoundly moving memoir, yet dotted with hilarious moments, Hush to Roar is the inspiring story of one woman’s quest to find her voice and overcome her past to live abundantly in the present. Narrated by the author herself, Hush to Roar takes listeners on an extraordinary journey from childhood love and belonging through displacement, trauma and the long road towards reclaiming her voice.©2020 Toyin Okunuga (P)2026 Toyin Okunuga Funny Witty
