Fatherless Daughter: Compiled Epochs of a Journey
by Dyan ConstantinePublish: Jan 18, 2021Biographies & Memoirs Book Overview
A Jamaican Linguist in my own right, hablo muy poco español, I have a good grasp of the English language and my patois nuh stop yah so! I am the last of four children, the third girl of three, have no number two position in the lineup and the first and only to have been born and totally raised without a father ever laying eyes and hands on me. That has never deterred my decision to consciously be happy and attempt at attaining success in my endeavours.
Dyan Constantine is my name; life is my game, I have God on my mind, whoopsie all the time! I grew up in an environment that would have broken many, a single-parent home with a mother at the helm, in a tenement with varying characters, many of which I “auditioned” for the roles but they never suited me. I have no tremendous societal successes to my name; however, I do not rely on society’s scale to weigh how accomplished I feel.
I have sat many examinations, and I have written a few research papers; therefore, one could say I have authored many original documents. However, Fatherless Daughter – Epochs of a Journey has been my most daunting, emotional, fun-filled and dramatic project. It has made me more vulnerable like never before, and it has allowed me to relive many extraordinary moments that even though they were not forgotten, they were archived. Having survived four decades in this world, I feel like I have experiences which not many are aware of, many needed clarity on, and some are very curious about. Journey with me and if you choose, live vicariously through me for these exciting chapters in my first published book.
