Can You Really Survive In America?
Bayo's journey unfolds with a resounding ultimatum that echoes through his world: "Leave America." This command sets him adrift in the complex fabric of American life, where staunch conservatism and a hunger for uniformity collide with a mosaic of cultures and moral crossroads. In the nation's quest for advancement, often masked as a quest for justice, Bayo's brilliant mind becomes a bargaining chip, his insights poised to leave an indelible mark on the times. Yet, the terms of this negotiation are shadowed by deceit, with both mortals and gods weaving traps that could shatter Bayo's life or divert his fate. Join him on this poignant voyage, where the narrative's intensity may cause your heart to beat in sync with the rhythm of his challenges. Disclaimer!! Disclaimer!! Disclaimer!! In weaving the fabric of this story, I have approached history with a delicate hand, striving to honor the truth without succumbing to the ease of stereotypes. I have painted the era from 1947 to the 1950s with a careful brush, each stroke informed by diligent research. Yet, let us know that history did not shackle this tale. Elements like Victorian scholarship are threads of fiction woven to enrich the narrative's tapestry. The Western influence in the depicted African nations is not a mirror of reality but a choice made to serve the story's needs. The characters' surnames and actions are not historical anchors but rather creative liberties taken to craft a compelling journey. My connection to the Yoruba culture is one of respect, not lineage. I have endeavored to portray their rich traditions with the reverence they deserve, mindful to tread lightly on sacred grounds. My dance with the orishas is a choreography of imagination, not devotion. I hope people will embrace this work as an ode to cultural celebration, a bridge extending towards understanding rather than a misstep into misinterpretation.
