TEARLESS is a deeply compelling portrait of twenty-four-year-old Lami's self-discovery and emotional coming-of-age. It is also a passionate and unflinching tale of interracial love.
It weaves together two narrative threads that tend to themes of love, loss, fatherlessness and identity with grace and confidence.
TEARLESS follows the journey of Lami Davies who struggles to reunite her separated siblings and rise above her trauma. Lami is obsessed with finding her little sister whom she lost touch with at the age of twelve after her mother's passing. Her abusive father, in a heart-wrenching act, separated the children, placing them in the care of different relatives. The youngest, Tutu, was sent to live with a distant aunt in England. In her quest to reunite her family, we see how Lami's childhood experiences influence her interactions as an adult. Her story will offer hope to all readers who are battling to let go of past trauma in order to prevent it from spilling into the present and the future.
