Tobechukwu Nwosu lives in Lagos, where nothing in his life ever arrives in normal proportion. Rent becomes public humiliation. Work stress becomes fluorescent theater. Heartbreak feels custom-built. Even small private struggles somehow gather witnesses. As he fights to stay fed, employed, housed, and emotionally intact, Tobe starts to suspect that his bad luck is not just bad luck. Somewhere behind the story is a bitter, failed writer, a weak man in real life who seems to take his own humiliations out on Tobe by making every realistic problem land harder, sharper, and more personally. My Life’s an Exaggeration is a darkly comic urban webnovel about class pressure, shame, survival, love, and the terrifying feeling that somebody is editing your life with malice.
