This enticing collection of contemporary fiction is a celebration of our ubuntu : the invisible ties that bind us all together. From ancient forest guardians to modern cultural warriors, from grappling with age-old traditions to championing hair identity, these evocative stories explore the duality of Kenyan life and how to find a way between two cultures, both of which are yours. Chemutai Glasheen' s unforgettable characters are drawn from her early life in Africa with all its richness, diversity and complexity.
