'Call Me by Your Name' meets 'The Song of Achilles' in this tale of forbidden love and star-crossed lovers.What happens when the love you buried comes back louder than ever? Ade and Ekong were almost high school sweethearts-at least, in Ade's heart. A single mistake and the passage of time drove a wedge between them, but years later, a message from Ade reignites something Ekong thought he'd buried for good. Now a pharmacist in Edinburgh, Ekong is married and preparing to become a father. His life is steady, secure...safe. Ade, a successful lawyer living in Accra, is still single-haunted by a love he never truly let go and pressured by his Nigerian mother to find a wife. Their lives have taken different paths. Their choices have shaped who they are. But one truth remains: Ade has never stopped loving Ekong. As old feelings resurface, the two must confront the weight of their past, the boundaries of their present and the impossible question: Can love that was never allowed to bloom still find a way to grow? Set between Ghana, Nigeria and Edinburgh, this story explores identity, longing and the kind of love that refuses to be forgotten-even when the world says it should be. When Love is a Silent Song is a tender and haunting exploration of queer longing in a world where such love is still forbidden.…

Folk tales and myths serve as a means of handing down traditions and customs from one generation to the next in Africa. For several generations, stories from Africa have traditionally been passed down by word of mouth. Often, after a hard day's work, the adults would gather the children together by moonlight, around a village fire and tell stories. This is traditionally called Tales by Moonlight. Usually the stories are meant to prepare young people for life, and so taught a lesson or moral.…
