Publisher's Synopsis
Family Beast is a gripping and emotionally charged story that explores the dark realities of an abusive marriage, the weight of silence, and the slow, painful journey toward freedom.
Agnes never imagined that the man she once loved would become her greatest source of torment. Trapped in a marriage where love has long since been replaced by fear, she endures years of emotional neglect, manipulation, and silent suffering. Every plea for help is dismissed, every door she knocks on is shut in her face. Society tells her to endure, to keep her home intact, to accept her fate-because men will always be men. But everything changes when Segun, her husband, makes an unthinkable decision-he leaves. Without warning, without explanation, he builds a new life with another woman, leaving Agnes and their children behind as if they never existed. At first, the betrayal is unbearable. The questions haunt her: What did I do wrong? Why wasn't I enough? But as the weight of his absence settles, Agnes begins to realize something unexpected-she can breathe. No more walking on eggshells. No more living in fear. No more shrinking herself to fit into the role of a "perfect wife." In his departure, she finds something she never thought possible-freedom. Yet, society refuses to see her newfound peace. Instead of support, she receives pity. Instead of validation, she is told to stay silent. But Agnes is done being voiceless. As she navigates life without Segun, she embarks on a journey of self-discovery, healing, and the realization that rejection can sometimes be a blessing in disguise. With vivid storytelling, rich descriptions, and heart-wrenching yet hopeful moments, Family Beast takes readers on an unforgettable journey through pain, endurance, and the power of reclaiming one's worth.
