The award winning author revealed
this while speaking at the Stockholm Forum for Gender Equality.
She narrated how a ‘big man in
the media’ slipped his hand under her clothes and then into her bra to squeeze
her breasts when she was 17 years old’.
According to her, “I had written
a book of poems and taken it to a big man in the media who I felt would support
my quest to have it introduced to the public, but was dumbfounded when the man
who had earlier praised me for writing the book did the unthinkable.
“He slipped his hand into my bra
to squeeze my breasts. Then I was so shocked that I did nothing for seconds but
then, I pushed his hand away, gently, nicely, because I didn’t want to offend
him.
“Later that day, I broke out in a
rash on my face, neck and chest, as though my body was recoiling, as though my
body was saying what my lips had not said.”
