Terrorists of the Aberdare by Nganga ...
How far can a man go to win the love of a woman? That is the question at the heart of this novella by Ng’ang’a Mbugua. Presented as a stream of consciousness, the narrative recalls the life and travails of Sonko Wakadosi, a man who is as much a victim of social circumstances as his own follies, both of which conspire to trap him in a vicious and tragic drama.
Yet, this is also a story about the consequences of the unchecked conflict between man and wild animals at a time when climate change and environmental degradation have man locked in a losing battle with the forces of nature.
Written in a light, humourous and satirical style, the book won the Wahome Mutahi Literary Prize in 2010 and in 2011 was runner up in the Jomo Kenyatta Prize for Literature, Kenya’s biggest award for fiction. The first edition was published in 2009 and reprinted in 2012. The book has been selected as a study text for a Masters class at the University of Nairobi and undergraduate class at Daystar University, Nairobi.
Sunrise at Midnight by Florence Mbaya
Abigail looked at him lovingly, then turning to her mother said, "Mama, know I have failed you, but when you get to know
what happened, I know you will be more forgiving..."
"Failed me?" her mother asked, looking quizzically at her. "You completely let me down, Abigail. I did not expect you to have a baby before you completed school and was able to fend for yourself, and your baby! I can only hope that you have learnt your lesson.
Though a baby is a blessing from God, it comes with responsibilities which will become even bigger and more complicated as Benji grows," she said. Abigail accepted her mother's reprimand without bitterness. She was right.
Indeed the responsibilities currently were already exhausting. Anything more will destroy me though,' she thought.
'Everyday brings new challenges! I wonder if I will ever manage to do anything else.' Loudly she said, "Mama, I want to
defer school until Benji is older."
