Lifting the Veil: Cynthia ‘Tasha’ Osajibenedict’s Fourth Book, If These Eyes Could Talk, Dares to Say What Others Won’t

Cynthia ‘Tasha’ Osajibenedict

Known for her raw storytelling and unapologetic exploration of themes often considered taboo, Cynthia’s latest work delves into the quiet chaos of desire, love, and the double lives many lead in pursuit of passion and love. Set against a backdrop of love, intimacy and unspoken truths, If These Eyes Could Talk is as provocative as it is profound.

The book weaves together a world of narratives that unravel behind closed doors—where vulnerability meets secrecy, and appearances mask a simmering underworld of longing and desire. Cynthia’s writing is bold, unflinching, and deeply personal, making her characters feel both hauntingly familiar and painfully human.
Readers of her earlier works—Dear Naija Girl, Sex After Harmattan, and A Language of Flowers—will find in this new release the same razor-sharp insight and heartfelt authenticity that made her a literary favorite among women seeking stories that reflect their lived realities.
While Dear Naija Girl was a tender love letter to young Nigerian women navigating societal pressures, and Sex After Harmattan explored intimacy, vulnerability, and dating in Lagos, If These Eyes Could Talk dares to ask: What do we really hide from the world, and at what cost?

“Writing this book was like holding a mirror up to society,” Cynthia said in a recent interview. “We all have passions and pleasures —some we protect, others we bury. I wanted to create something where those hidden pleasures could speak, and be seen.”

With striking cover art and a title that beckons curiosity, the book is already generating buzz in literary circles and among her growing online community of readers. Praise is pouring in for its fearless tone and emotional depth. “Sexy, refreshing, thrilling,” Amaka Azie, phenomenal Nigerian author gushed. “Cynthia’s voice is like no other.”

Another reviewer says
More than just fiction, If These Eyes Could Talk is an experience—a brave excavation of the human heart in all its messy, magnificent truth.

For readers looking for a story that challenges, heals, and awakens, Cynthia ‘Tasha’ Osajibenedict’s newest release is not to be missed.
