The book fair where creativity meets the future, London Book Fair, opened its doors last March 11-13, 2025, in Olympia, London. Drawing around 30,000 attendees, this year’s London Book Fair showcased the vibrant world of publishing and creative content, marking a significant milestone in the industry. The fair not only maintained its impressive attendance figures but also celebrated a 10-percent boost in rights-center table sales compared to 2024.
Citi of Books is proud to have been part of this prestigious event, representing the incredible works of our talented authors in stand 7B94. In our assigned booth, a range of books—from fiction to nonfiction—would be on exhibit. A book included in the gallery was “God’s Child: Memoirs and Philosophy of Life” by Terrence Lake.
In “God’s Child: Memoirs and Philosophy of Life,” the author presents a thought-provoking exploration of humanity’s purpose and the significance of our diverse races. He asserts that the variety of races on Earth is not a mere coincidence but rather a deliberate design with a higher purpose. According to Terrence, until we recognize and fulfill this purpose, ignorance and prejudice will continue to threaten global peace. His compelling narrative challenges readers to reflect on their beliefs and encourages a deeper understanding of our shared humanity.
Terrence’s unique perspective posits that humans originated from different planets beyond our solar system, suggesting that we are part of a grand cosmic plan. This idea serves as a metaphor for the potential we have to create a “heavenly environment” on Earth, emphasizing the importance of unity and cooperation among all people. With immediacy, wit, and candor, he tackles the issue of racism head-on, making a powerful case for why it is not only morally unconscionable but also detrimental to our collective progress. His engaging writing style makes complex philosophical concepts accessible, inviting readers to ponder their own roles in fostering a more inclusive society.
“God’s Child” is more than just a memoir; it is a call to action for individuals to embrace enlightenment and work towards a harmonious existence. Terrence’s insights are both timely and timeless, making this book a crucial read for anyone seeking to understand the roots of racism and the importance of diversity. Highly recommended for its profound messages and engaging narrative, “God’s Child” serves as a reminder that we are all interconnected and that our differences can be a source of strength rather than division. Through this work, Terrence inspires us to rise above prejudice and strive for a world where peace and understanding prevail.
