Coles RUSTED REALITIES: When Stories Rewrite Lives and Worlds Collide at Bayshore Shopping Centre in Ottawa, ON
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
Zelu has spent her life feeling like an outsider—disabled, unmarried, and uninterested in the traditional expectations of her Nigerian family. Her dream of becoming a novelist seems further out of reach when she loses her university job and faces yet another rejection for her literary work during her sister’s opulent Caribbean wedding. At her lowest point, Zelu decides to stop seeking approval and takes a bold creative leap: writing a novel purely for herself.
The result is Rusted Robots, a futuristic epic set in the ruins of humanity, where AI and androids fight for survival. What begins as an act of rebellion and self-expression quickly becomes a journey of transformation, catapulting Zelu into unexpected literary stardom. But fame comes with its own challenges—publishers, critics, and fans all try to mold her deeply personal story into something unrecognizable. As Zelu navigates the pressures of success, she’s forced to confront her identity, her family’s expectations, and her evolving sense of purpose.
Stories That Shape Us is a poignant, humorous, and deeply resonant tale about finding one’s voice, reclaiming identity, and the power of storytelling to transform lives. Perfect for readers who love heartfelt journeys and thought-provoking narratives.
