Anotace knihy

At sixteen, one act of rage and revenge nearly cost a man his life and very nearly ended Cornelius O. Kayode's own future before it began.

Familiar Stranger is not the memoir readers expect. It doesn't open with a villain lurking in the shadows. It walks straight into the places danger actually hides: a childhood shaped by undiagnosed ADHD, a home where love arrived through harsh discipline instead of understanding, and a series of "familiar strangers": the commuters we half-know, the family members we fully trust, and the self we rarely stop to examine.

Blending unflinching memoir with practical, real-world guidance for parents, caregivers, and educators, Kayode revisits the moments that could have destroyed him: a bench, a belt, a wooden pestle, and an ambush born of fury. He traces the long road from resentment to the forgiveness ritual of ho'oponopono, the wisdom of Yoruba proverbs passed down through generations, and a hard-won understanding that a child's instincts, not just their obedience, are the first line of defence.

Inside, you'll find:

• A three-part framework for recognising "familiar stranger" danger in passersby, family circles, and within a child's own instincts
• Real conversation scripts that help children name discomfort before it becomes danger
• A candid, faith-grounded account of healing from childhood trauma, anger, and self-doubt
• "Letters to The Blac Shrec": real reader letters showing the ripple effect of the message

Broken. Bruised. Blessed. Familiar Stranger is for every parent who has ever wondered whether their child would tell them if something felt wrong, and for every adult still making peace with the child they used to be.
