Journalist Mae Azango, whose 2012 reporting on female genital mutilation won her several international awards, is set launch her debut book ‘Voice of the Trumpetess.’The book tells the extraordinary story of her life – an epic of struggles, setbacks, renewed hope, and ultimate triumph. Voice of the Trumpetess, which blends Liberian pidgin English with standard English, is a moving and exhilarating autobiography that comes with many good moral lessons. The launch will take place at Palm Springs Hotel on Sunday, December 17. She also talked about the abuses she went through with her first love, who didn’t hesitate to beat her up on many occasions. Throughout the book, Mae Azango was unfortunate in relationships, from one abusive man to another.
