The Eagle In Me

The Eagle in Me is a memoir about a young Mosotho woman on a journey of self-discovery. The story spans across two countries- Lesotho and China. Outrageously honest and richly detailed, ‘The Eagle in Me’ is an authentic story of a courageous woman overcoming sexual and psychological abuse as well as intellectual struggles. With an intriguing storyline and pulling no punches, Palesa Lucy Soko addresses toxic relationships with people who cripple our growth, difficulties of being born into a broken home, fitting into a step-home, unexpected pregnancy, failed marriage, and mental health awareness. Through the pages of this book, we see the strength of a young woman breaking the bolts of fate with a burning ambition. She further takes us through the efforts she made towards self-discovery, her newly found faith, the lessons she learned, and the golden second chance life has presented to her.
