Taiwo, whose book, ‘My Mother’s Daughter,’ was unveiled on Tuesday in a virtual ceremony to commemorate her 70th birthday, described her mother, the late Mrs Alice Shonibare, as an enigma.
“She’s been dead for 15 years. The origin of it was to write about my mother. But as I started to write, I realised that my story was like she had led me to becoming. I started writing it three years ago and I had gone halfway. I stopped writing for one and a half years but then came COVID-19. The book reviewer, Mr Kunle Ajibade, who is also the Executive Editor/Director, Independent Communications Network Ltd, congratulated Taiwo on her “daring strides.”
Ajibade added that if the author’s intention was to deliver a compassionate and inspiring book, “she brilliantly nails this one.”
