Nobel Prize Laureate - Abdulrazak Gurnah is back!

After being awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature, Gurnah returns with his deeply moving new novel, “Theft” — now beautifully translated in Kiswahili by Dr. Ida Hadjivayanis under the title “Dhulma.” @IdaHadjivayanis

Set in the winding alleys of 1990s Zanzibar, Badar, Fauzia, and Raya navigate the shadows of injustice in search of freedom. Even in their pain, a faint light of hope endures.

MORE DETAILS COMING SOON — keep your eyes peeled to get your copy soon!

Things Fall Apart centers on the Igbo and native culture, and the effects colonization has on an area.
Achebe portrays a rich and complex culture that is the backbone to Okonkwo's society until colonization.....

Just finished reading a book on Nyerere and Ms. Wicken, his British assistant for 40 years. Can't wait for the declassified private notes. I need 2 more books to reach 12 for this year, but I’m exhausted. Any simple kids’ stories with pictures and big fonts? 😂
