ABSTRACT
Asika uses the novel to explore and explain the notion that the family is a huge part of society and it depends on the success or failure of the family to raise and breed morally sound individuals in all ramifications. Asika's depiction of Tamara, the protagonist as a broken individual is as a result of family issues. It opens the mind to the reality of the important role the family plays in societal building. Tamara lacks proper parental love and attention and this makes her desperate for it from anyone and in any form which is quite understandable. This forces her to make regrettable decisions that lead to her eventual ruin. Tamara's story is a cautionary tale of the risks of growing up in a family that does not provide emotional and physical safety. Without that foundation, she is left vulnerable to those who took advantage of her desperation for love and validation. The novel highlights the need for parents to prioritize their children's emotional and physical well-being, and to provide a nurturing and supportive environment in which they can thrive.
