by Annabel Sylvester Oromoni (Author)
Of Dreams and Quiet Wars is a tender and unflinching exploration of identity, love, loss, and the unseen places we carry within us. Through essays, poetry, and intimate reflections, Annabel Sylvester Oromoni traces what it means to navigate longing and belonging, recover from quiet devastations, and make room for hope in a world that is anything but tender.
Rooted in the complexities of girlhood, migration, love, grief, memory, and the unspoken negotiations that shape who we become, this collection opens a window into the interior life of a woman learning to rebuild in the dark. From the gentle bonds of sisterhood to the weight of cultural expectations, her stories reveal truths we often hold in silence, offering language for the private transformations we rarely name.
Of Dreams and Quiet Wars is an ode to the bravery required to live a life shaped by both love and rupture. It honours the persistence of a heart that keeps returning to itself, the courage to feel deeply, the strength to rise from what has undone us, and the choice to keep choosing ourselves even as the world shifts beneath our feet.
