Cobalt Chronicles (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781950659449)

Cobalt Chronicles is a story about a delightful child who, at a tender age, faces the harsh realities of survival in the Congo. Destined to a life of servitude and hard labor, Esynama with her mother's blessing, challenges this foregone conclusion. Her father drags her into forced labor to the cobalt mines of the Katanga province. But, motivated by her mother's value of education, she pursues the dream of broadening her world through education. At every turn, Esy is met with the crushing blows of reality. She survives the lechery of a predator, the jealously of a scorned wife, and a brutal attack that brings her to the brink of death. Does Esy have the fortitude and the strength of character to rise above these hurdles? There are no guarantees because to be successful, she has to make agonizing choices.
