“At turns deeply poignant and darkly comedic, Someday, Maybe is a beautiful rendering of an Igbo-British family’s ways of loving and caring for each other in the midst of great personal tragedy. This book will stay with me for a long time.” Jade Bentil, author of Rebel Citizen

“An honest and profoundly stirring portrait of loss. Onyi Nwabineli peels back the veneer of sympathy and expectation to reveal the effects a young widow’s grief can have on her family, on her circle of friends, and even on the strangers she encounters. ... At its heart, Someday, Maybe is a beautifully written love letter to the resiliency of the human spirit.” Xio Axelrod, author of The Girl with Stars in Her Eyes
