'The crazy spiral spun by Bea Quainooh is almost more than one can bear. The truth is indeed stranger than fiction but Quainooh’s generously and courageously steps forward to testify to one of the truths of women’s experiences in the goings and comings of marriage, livelihood and solidarity in migration. Reading this book sucks you into an emotional roller coaster.'-Esi Sutherland-Addy, Professor of African Studies and Gender Activist.Many things set the author apart from others. Her background from humble beginnings and varied experiences enriched her to tell the story from a different perspective.

One Incredible Endurance: Footprints of unimaginable tolerance, devotion and the final breakthrough, is a unique story in which the author shares a story of survival through unimaginable proportions.The characters are made up to suit the fictional aspect of the story.

It’s about a young couple (main characters) diverging perspectives on life, stemming from their different childhood experiences. Annabel’s outrageous tolerance stems from her past. She yearns for that stability that surrounded her as a child, so, on she stayed.In the end she portrays also the resilience of one woman’s eventually stands for justice to defend her honor- A journey of self-discovery and freedom.Through the novel, the author found ways to reach out to the young and inspire those who seek to break free and focus on a new dawn.
