Desirous of drawing attention to the ugly experiences of victims, who are often tricked into prostitution and trafficked to other countries for the infamous trade, Blessing Efe Gbudje's book, The Road Once Taken, has been introduced to the public. It is the story of a young lady, who embarked on a journey to Libya in a bid to escape life's harshness at home in order to fulfill dreams of wealth. She would later realise that once she sets foot on that dangerous road, she would have left behind her freedom and dignity. What is worse, she might never be seen or heard of again!
Book reviewer, Mr. Emeka Esogbue, said A Road Once Taken is written in simple language, and that the storyline is very realistic, with actual landmarks and names of places in Libya, which leave readers wondering whether the book is a reality or fiction.
