The Child is Black is a poetry collection of sixty poems that date back to over a decade ago written with a feminine touch while didactically instigating values, philosophizing life as well as entertaining readers by means of mnemonic effects and subtle humor. The writer takes on various personae so as to effectively and limitlessly speak. The poet (author) is currently a teacher of English at St. Georges Girls Eldoret. She is a graduate of The Catholic University of Eastern Africa (Summa Cum Laude) and a part time post Graduate student of Mount Kenya University Thika. She is also a Catholic nun belonging to the congregation of Franciscan Sisters of The Immaculate Conception, Kenya Region.
