Swift dispatch
Place of Cool Waters by Ndirangu Gith...
When Jude Wilson decides to travel halfway across the world to visit the graves of his childhood Boy Scout heroes, he unwittingly signs up for a lot more than he imagined. Growing up in the placid little Pacific Northwest town of Clarksville could never adequately prepare him for what he encounters in the vibrant, mercurial streets of Nairobi, where context defines meaning and words alone are not always sufficient to communicate across a cultural gap.
He meets Qadir Mohamed—the affable manager at the youth hostel where he is staying—and a valuable friendship develops between two people from disparate backgrounds with seemingly little in common.
In Kenya, the past is never far away, though it is sometimes remembered differently by insiders. As a result, the unexamined triumphal legends from Jude’s scouting days begin to unravel in the face of new discoveries. It is, however, a disastrous taxi ride and ensuing case of mistaken identity that emerge as the defining moments of this life-changing trip, leading him to stumble upon truths about himself that he was previously unaware of.

The Black Facade by Rowland Lukano
The Black Facade is a poetry collection that seeks to address the deceptive nature of humankind in all spheres and the silver lining that shines hope on the rather hopeless. Presenting a society marked by a cocktail of smiles and frowns, Lukalo seemingly divides his poems into three groups; the first group addressing the political gimmicks in the contemporary society. The second group addresses the hiccups that lace the sweet experience that love is. Lastly, Lukalo has given a masterpiece of poems cleverly cutting across the social issues that are not uncommon in our society today. The question one asks is; how truthful are we in the pursuit of happiness and wellbeing of ourselves and others? And, are happy endings really existent?
About The Poet
Lukalo was born in September, 1994 in Simatwet, Nandi County, Kenya. He is the lastborn in his family. He attended Kaptik Primary School and Kaptik Mixed Day Secondary School both in Vihiga County. He later joined Moi University where he graduated in 2019 with a bachelor's degree in Education-Arts (English/Literature). He is currently a teacher of English and Literature.
His passion for writing began as early as when he was a form 2 student when he started doing short stories and poems. None of these was published though. He later started his blog, The People's Beacon, in 2016 which he uses to write poems and articles addressing social rights.
The Hot Chalice by Hamisi Wawire
Should we let our children into our marriage squabbles? Does it help or worsen the already worse situation? Does it mould them into responsible parents and patriotic citizens? Must we doubt each other in marriage?
In this lovely but tragic story, Injendi’s true love to his family – wife and daughter comes to an abrupt end when his wife’s doubts lead to Nekesa’s killing. A rosy union turns once into a bed of thorns that dates back to Nawusino’s early orientation to love and marriage. Nandako has to step in strongly to make the unimagined happen.
Uprooting the Roots of Poverty by Oli...
Judge me as unfortunate since you have not once lived through adversity. If you have never passed through life minus an opponent then there is no single person who can ever imagine or know what you are capable of or where your strength lies. We neither choose where we are born nor are given a life manual, we all design our survival skills and adjust appropriately to the ecosystem. Pain, hard times, hostility, and frustration should make us victorious! Turn your pain into your power! I conquered destitution through Him who orders my steps and walks with me through the thickest- ‘Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me (Psalm 23: 4). You too, can do it!

Heart of Surrender by Bosibori Bogonko
The story of Hannah is in many ways our story. From beginning to end the characters honor their part in bringing alive the heart-wrenching decisions that we sometimes have to make when life throws us a curveball. What is it that takes us through those moments?
Regardless of the situations we go through, how do we arise and come out better and stronger, clearer about who we are? How do we honor our truth regardless of the circumstances?
Heart of Surrender subtly reminds us that we are not in control, and when we let go, there is greater power within us that enables us to rise beyond the most challenging circumstances. The bonus is finding our authentic self, living our truth, and above reproach.
Simply told, Heart of Surrender calls us to self-reflect on our journeys, then like the eagle choose to die slowly, or go through the painful process of renewing ourselves at different chapters of our lives.

Lwanda Magere by Okoiti Omtatah
