      Set against the backdrop of Kenyan politics and societal challenges, the story follows Muriuki as he leaves his village for the city in search of a better life with his love, Mumbi. Their journey is fraught with economic struggles, racism, and the harsh realities of a post-colonial world.

It is also an act of celebration, reminding readers of the brilliance of the best-known writers to emerge from this part of the world, and heralding the birth of new writers whose gifts, we can safely predict, will shine brightly in the years ahead"--Provided by publisher
