One Boy! is an emotionally charged--at times even humorous--coming-of-age narrative. In this debut work of creative non-fiction, Benjamin Maiangwa draws readers into the intimate interior of a boy navigating the delicate space between youthful innocence and the harsh realities of a Catholic boarding school.

The story traces a young man's journey through the tangled terrain of love, loss, and self-discovery. Set against the backdrop of cultural expectations and religious doctrine, the protagonist endures betrayal, bullying, and the fragile beauty of friendship. As he matures within the strict confines of the boarding school and the religious hostilities of the outside world, he arrives at a moral crossroads: should he uphold the Judeo-Christian values of forgiveness instilled in him--or yield to the seductive pull of revenge?

One Boy! is more than a story of survival; it is a meditation on what it means to remain whole in a world that so often insists you break. In the end, the question isn't just what the boy will choose--but what we would choose in his place.

Benjamin Maiangwa is an Assistant Professor of Political Science at Lakehead University. He was also a 2021 Teaching Fellow at Durham University. He received the 2020 University of Manitoba Distinguished Dissertation Award. He is the author of The Crisis of Belonging and Ethnographies of Peacebuilding and editor of The Paradox(es) of Diasporic Identity, Race, and Belonging. One Boy! is his first work of creative non-fiction.
