My Life In Pieces

The book features the life of a young man, detailing his life from birth to his current age and the transformations he has gone through. It takes readers to a journey of hopelessness, showing the challenges the young man had to pass through throughout life. He aspires to become someone important in society. His ambitions, however, are not realised and life continues to present numerous challenges with each step he makes. He becomes a thief, stealing money and knickers.

After finishing his primary education, he moves out of the village to a new town and begins to enjoy unlimited freedom. Life takes a new turn. He enjoys it for a little while before it roughs him up. He tries to take his own life tragically when he feels there's nothing more to fight for.

He becomes sick and life gets even worse. His life becomes a nightmare and school becomes unbearable. Even so, he's able to finish secondary school and joins college, where life pushes him to another trajectory.

His is a story of fate, driven by winds of bad fate, guiding him to places he doesn't envision to go. When he is conscripted to the special branch, he becomes a cold killer, cleaning the government mess. Not that he enjoys so, but because his family and close friends depend on it. If he fails, they die.

He lives a life of utter desperation, yearning for change and more importantly, freedom. He doesn't recognise himself anymore and he struggles with issues of identity.
