'Exquisite in its honesty and truth and resilience, and a necessary
chronicle from one of the greatest writers of our time' Chimamanda
Ngozi Adichie Selected as a Book of the Year 2016 in the Guardian
When Ngugi wa Thiong'o arrives at the prestigious Makerere
University, it embodies all the potential and excitement of the
early 1960s. Campus is a haven of opportunity for the brightest
African students, a meeting place for thinkers and writers from all
over the world, and its alumni are filling Africa's emerging
political and cultural positions. Despite the challenges he faces
as a young black man in a British colony, it is here that Ngugi
begins to find his voice as a playwright, journalist and novelist,
writing his first, pivotal works just as the countries of East
Africa enter the final stages of their independence struggles.
