Alacrimia in Layman's terms is the congenital inability to produce tears. Some places in Africa have their norms and beliefs wrapped around age-old, blind superstitions. Especially the rural communities. So when a young girl comes from the city to the village, and it is discovered, through a series of unfortunate events, that she won't cry, even when induced, things take a downward spin for her, as she finds herself from Osun State to Kogi State, and then Enugu State. © This book is a work of fiction. •°•°•° 🏆 Honorable Mention in The Ruby Awards 2019 (4th place) #WattNigeria #WattysNG2020 Updates on Weekends.
