Ep 19 | Someday, Maybe: Literary Fiction and Grief

In today’s episode, we’re leaning back into my bread n butter - literary fiction - with Onyi Nwabineli’s debut novel, Someday, Maybe.

Someday, Maybe is a literary fiction novel about a young woman, named Eve’s, journey through grief after her husband commits suicide - her being the one who finds him. The novel introduces you to Eve’s family and friends as she struggles living underneath the weight of her loss and the means the loss came about. 

Someday, Maybe is a novel layered with themes of loss and self-worth, that dissects the complexities of grief and untangles how people, like Eve, can idolize or canonize those who have passed as they memorialize them. In the novel, Eve’s idolization of her husband blinds her to the complexities of who he is as a person, their relationship, and working through her grief.
