At the long run, the only thing she could do, and actually did do at the point where she had fallen, was to faint, wake up and cry and wish for death to come; and faint back again…. She circumvented this torturous circle with so much grief in her heart until her soul was literally suspended between the two divergent realms of life and death…! This is a story of an underprivileged African boy, Terkimbi Jim, who managed to make it into the university against all odds. He had to battle against generational curses, poverty and his personal aversion for hardship. His father abandoned him with his mother. The mother drudged to keep him in school but she passed away when he was in Junior Secondary School. So he had to endure some forms of hardship both in his secondary and tertiary educations, schools through which he had to sponsor himself…. Set among the Tiv people of Benue State Nigeria, “Tears of a Widow” is a story of human dogged determination to succeed, resilience and endurance in a society which has no pity, plan or structure for helping his kinds. It’s a tale of the survival of the fittest and the elimination of the unfit!
